Horn Issue?!?!

Post by savage »

i drive a 88 Hilux xtra Cab (the square model)

my horn has recently stopped working.... i checked the wiring with another horn and to no avail, the horn is fine, but somewhere the wiring is shot.

i checked behind the steering wheel aswell and all those connections seem fine.

is there a fuse or relay i am missing or do i need to go all through the mess of wiring that seems to follow the horn :?

thx in advance
I Have a Hilux, Its nothing fancy, but it gives me plenty of fun!

Don't know about a fuse or relay but check every connection and wire again. All it could take is a stripped/cut/nicked wire somewhere.

I would just run a new wire for the horn, but I'm lazy.
Normally there is a fuse in the fusebox for the horn. Don't know about a relay. relays are usually for high current devices. i don't think those little buzzers drain much power
