Horn question - dumb

Is there a fuse for the horn? '80 SC.

I know about the relay.

Horn just stopped working. Put in a different steering wheel. Worked for a while after the new wheel, but just stopped.

Checked w/ a good relay - no joy.

When you go back to the last thing you did, it was change the wheel. That's rule no. 1 when trouble shooting, go back to the last operation. I'd say your horn wire is off.

It's hooked to the horn pad, that was my first thought.

Maybe disconnected at the ring.

Thanks, I'll check.

make sure the button has a contact to the sterring colume that is touching bare metal. dont know hot to describe this better than there are some little metal nubs on my button that were touching a painted part of the colume. scraped a little off and HOOOOOOONK the horn worked fine
