You can tell that a ham has gone bad by looking at it and smelling it. If it smells strange or looks like it has mold, it is bad.
There are 3 ways to tell. One is the smell, if it has a bad odor its bad. Another is the color, if it is an odd color like green or yellow its bad. The last is by looking at the consistency of it, is it slimy, its bad.
Usually from the smell and feel. If it smells odd - yeasty, sulfurous, or of ammonia - then it is bad. If it is getting slimy, it is going bad.

Cooked ham will eventually go bad. Spoilage can only be delayed. Within an hour or two of cooking, separate the ham into smaller portions that will cool quickly. Then wrap and refrigerate. Plan to use it within 5-7 days. If more storage time is needed, the ham could possibly be frozen - but not all types of ham freeze well.
Usually if your rear diff is going bad it will start to howl or grind.

The process of old ham going bad in the refrigerator is primarily due to chemical reactions. As the meat breaks down, bacteria feed on it, producing byproducts that cause spoilage. This leads to changes in color, texture, and odor, indicating the ham is no longer safe to eat.
That would depend totally on what made the ham 'bad'. You might be fine if the ham spoiled with an overgrowth of innocuous yeast or lactobacillus. Or you could get sick if the ham was contaminated with pathogens.
