Default Horns

Hello guys
I disconnected my horns and tested them by putting 12vdc to them one at a time, one scared the crap out of me (it worked fine) the other was dead, so I connected the good one back to the horn connector on the car and pushed down on the horn..nothing..what should I try next? I really need a horn.
thanks again

What year? The horn mechanism (buttons, switches etc) were changed in 1990.

Posting basically the same question in different areas makes it appear as though you are trying to pad your post count....just saying.

don't worry about it....it's great that you reported the results of your issue.....too many ask for advice but never report back if it was good or not....glad you got it going.....
