Thank You.....

Here is my problem.... All fuses, except for the one marked as "INS LMPS" (there is not fuse for Horn that is marked) are working. I changed this fuse and it still doesnt work, therefore there is a different break in the circuit. I was told that the clips on the horn underneath the steering wheel may have come undone. However, i have airbags so i dont know how to take off the cover to check this... is there a way? or could it just be the horn itself (which i have yet to find).

Thanks

Hi k, The fuses are just inside the drivers door. And the horn is close to the front bumper on the right side, you may have to remove the plastic from under the bumper to gain access. Hope this helps, if you need more info let me know. Thanks, Keith.

Hi K, Can you hear a clicking noise when you push the horn? If you can then the problem is probely the horn itself. The best way to check the horn is to find the horn, unplug it and with a circuit test light in the plug, have someone press the horn for you. If the horn is the problem the light will light up. The horn should be on the right side of the car tucked behind the front bumper, it is very difficult to see, you may have to remove the plastic from under the bumper to gain access to it. If you need more help just let me know.  Thanks, Keith:

Answer
Hi K, You dont sound like an idiot, If people didn't ask questions these sites wouldn't be here, Ask all the questions you want. You have to remove the plastic under the bumper on the right side and look up to see it. it should be round (about 3 inches in diameter) with an opening on one side to let the sound out, with two wires connected to it. Dont worry about asking questions keep them comming. Thanks, Keith:
