This is what I know about the horn circuit
When you push the horn it grounds a relay that alows power to go to the horn and the horn is case grounded.
It's that simple. :cheers:

I had similar problems with the horn, I have some pictures that might help so if you'd like, i can email them to you.

Edit: not sure what year the pictures for, but i also have a general discription of what the wiring should do.

Re: Horn circuit ? (Aaron76)

Thanks aron but what i really need to know is the wireing under the hood .The preavious owner hacked it up and there looks like there is something missing next to the altinator. like a relay (2 holes in the fender well and some cut wires) but i know there is a relay under the dash for the horn. Thanks for any info :cheers:

The wires that supply power to the horn should be green and run down the Drivers side engine compartment just under the fender lip.
I hope this helps :cheers:
