Default Holding start button down, what will happen?

Just curious to know what will happen if instead of pressing and letting go of the start button, if someone was to keep it pressed or if the button was to get stuck? Because recently on a friend's German car his horn got stuck and it was a nuisance

Has anyone tried or accidently kept it pressed it for long

Specifically no. Manual says if it's running and you hold it down for 3 seconds it will shut it off.
