SOURCE: 2001 Chrysler Sebring LX sedan power locks

It is a long shot, but I took my door skins off a while back to access the speakers, and when I put the door skins back on my doors wouldn't lock. It was just a dirty contact switch. I took my driver side door skin back off, cleaned both metal surfaces with a rag and it fixed the problem. I believe the switch is on the back of your lock button, it's a thin piece of metal that looks like a pen clip.

SOURCE: 2005 sebring convertible- horn goes off by itself for 30 seconds

FIrst off the horn's ground works through the steering wheel,so the wire is bare or the end is broken and grounding in a place where it should not. You will have to check the wires for the horn from the fuse box up to the wheel.
your power feed to the headlights and the door locks has an open ( the power is not connected somewhere ) Perform a wiggle test turn on the headlights and lift the hood,find the power distribution box and begin to wiggle the wire harness.Sometimes the chrysler fuse box under the hood get loose inside the power distribution box,it will have to be broken down all the way to the heavy wires comming out of hte box,you can tighten these connections your self.

SOURCE: My 2004 chrysler sebring electical is not working.

Check around the MAP sensor area for any connections that may have been disturbed while you were replacing the sensor. Most or all of those functions are controlled by the body control module. I would think that a fault like that would show on the scanner readouts.

2003 H2 not working

Do you have an air bag light lit on the instrument cluster ? Do you have C.C. button's on the steering wheel , do they work ? If the alarm fob (as u call it ) Can make the horns sound , the relay is sending B+ voltage to the horns Don't know how your testing.
System Description
The horn system consists of the following components:
• Horn fuse
• Horn relay
• Horn switch
• Horn(s)
• Body Control Module (BCM)
System Operation
The vehicle horns are activated under the following conditions:
• The horn switch is depressed.
• The body control module (BCM) commands the horns on. The BCM commands the horns on under either of the following conditions:
- When the content theft deterrent system detects a vehicle intrusion. For further information, refer to Content Theft Deterrent (CTD) Description and Operation in Theft Deterrent.
- When the panic button is depressed on the remote control door lock transmitter. For further information, refer to Keyless Entry System Description and Operation in Keyless Entry.
- When the OnStar® system is used to sound the horns, if equipped. For further information, refer to OnStar Description and Operation in Cellular Communications.
- When the keyless entry system is used to lock the vehicle, a horn chirp may sound to notify the driver that the vehicle has been locked. The notification feature may be enabled or disabled through personalization. For further information, refer to Keyless Entry System Description and Operation in Keyless Entry.

Circuit Operation
Battery positive voltage is applied at all times to the horn relay coil and the horn relay switch. Pressing the horn switch applies ground to the horn relay control circuit. The body control module BCM may also apply ground to the horn relay control circuit as described above. When the horn relay control circuit is grounded, the horn relay is energized and battery positive voltage is applied to the horn(s) through the horn control circuit. The horn(s) sound as long as ground is applied to the horn relay control circuit.

Remote Car Starter with tachless vehicle. (Tach Lock-out)

Did you read the requirements for your particular system? The reason I ask is most remote starters will not work on a vehicle with a manual transmission, because of thier need to have the clutch pedal depressed in order to engage the starter.
