push the center of the steering wheel. honk honk
Check the contacts first to make sure they contacts. If they do, test horn.
Check the actual horn. Clean the contact points and apply dielectric grease to the contact points. Test the horn for resistance. Check the horn relay.
Fuse. If the fuse is good you can un plug your horn and connect a test light to the connector and have someone honk the horn. if the test light lights up, you need a horn. if not you need to trace the circuit for an open.
the wire is green with a black tracer. melvin
You should be able to switch the relay with the horn relay and then check to see if the horn works.
Try to operate the horn and listen for a click from the horn relay probably located under the hood. If you don't hear a click I would check out the horn switch contacts in the steering wheel. If you hear a click I would check for power at the horn using a test light. If you have power at the horn connection when horn switch is activated it is probably the horn itself that is bad. If you have no power at the horn connection when the horn switch is activated replace the horn relay.
Check for voltage at the horn connector. You'll need a test light or multimeter (and a helper to push the button). If you have voltage at 12V or higher.. get a new horn. If not, check the fuse and the relay. If those are okay, too I'd take it in to a professional.
Hi There could be a few things wrong, The contacts where you push for the horn, the contact ring under the driving wheel bezel, harness, fuse, or horn it'self. I would test the horn by using a jumper lead wire from the positive [red side] of the batt, and to the plug on the horn, if it works then You check the fuse, if they are ok check the wiring. IMHO It's most likeley to be a bad connection at the horn or a dead horn. PS: Also make sure that the horn is well grounded to the chasis. Check in this order. 1]Fuses 2] If horn works by giving it power from the batt. 3] good ground 4] Wheel switch with a test light on the plug that goes on the horn and the other and on a ground [ any metal part of the body, or - terminal on the batt [black wire] press the horn if the test light lights up thenit's most likeley the horn.

It should have only a fuse and a switch, no relay. Check ALL of the fuses with a test light.
AnswerFirst thing is go find the fuse. Use a test light to check the fuse while it is still in the vehicle. If you have power on both sides of the fuse then you know that the fuse is good. Next, check for power at the horn, probably located on the left front wheel well, right front wheel well, or in the grill. Pull the wire to the horn and stick your test light into the connector. Have somebody push the horn while you see if you have power going to the horn. If you have power to the horn, you probably need a horn. If no power to the horn, you either have a broken wire or a bad horn switch (located behind the steering wheel). F
Could be a number of reasons. You need to take it in to a shop, and have a system performance test done on it.
That is happening on my cherokee. I believe it is the wiring, so i am trying to disconnect the proper fuse if I can find my owners manual. Until then, I unplugged the battery. ***Check the horn relay. Remove the relay from its harness plug. If the horn does not stop, the problem lies between the relay and the horn, look for wire shorting on a live source, from breakage either from mechanical source, pinched or from corrosion. If horn stops, check Using a test light, check for voltage at the plug, there should be no voltage until you push the horn button. If there is voltage at the plug either the wire feeding the plug has shorted to a live source or the horn button is faulty. IF there is no voltage at the relay plug until you push the button (this would be ideal) then chances are the relay is faulty.
