Re: horn dont work

Stock steering wheel? Pop off horn button & see if a wire is connected to the steering column. Don't pull too hard & break the spring lead attaching to the column. The catch in the horn ring buried in the column snaps & won't hold the spring wire.:2cents:

On the inboard side of the column is a long connector with about 10 wires in it. Using a jumper, and a paperclip to make a connection, short the black wire to a good ground. Horn should sound. Or the relay should click. Relay is adjacent to the park brake release handle.

My vote is for a broken wire retainer behind the horn button. Very common. If the test above sounds the horn, remove the horn button. The bottom two pics in this post show the horn button contacts, and the little tabs that get broken.

i hear the relay clicking when i press horn . am i on the right wire ?. is it the green wire by driver headlight?

I found out my horn isn't working last time I drove the truck. Glad I stumbled across this thread :)
