Did you check to ensure the spring-loaded horn contact is in place and/or worn down? You'll have to pull the steering wheel to get to that.

The horn relay is a "Grounding" relay, this means that the horn switch is making a ground connection to activate the relay... no power going to the relay so no need for a fuse. :wink:
