Horn Question?
The horn on my 85 quit working. So, I pulled the horn button off the wheel and found things there in disrepair.
Through the wonder of Ebay I bought a new "Genuine GM made in Mexico" contact assembly part #9768584 (for those of you scoring at home) and the horn is still inoperative.
Here's the question...didn't I read in the forum some time back that many horn issues are related to the security system? If so I can't find the old posts. Can anyone shed light on why on Earth my d@#m horn won't work?
Thanks! :seeya

Re: Horn Question? (Teh Nam)
I think he misunderstood what you were saying Teh Nam. Check the actual horns to see if they're getting any power when you hit the horn button.
The horn is on the same fuse as the theft system. My horn went out a few months ago and it just popped the fuse. It's not in the main fuse block though, it's behind the driver info center in your center dash. Should be a 15amp. I would check there.

Re: Horn Question? (MtlSphere)
91vetteman: There are auxlliary fuses located under the glove box. You will need to remove the panel. The fuse marked "theft" (15 amp) includes the horn. There is also a horn reply towards the front of the I/P in same general location as fuse. Look for a group of three replys the horn reply is the middle one.
Also go to "search" on this forum (see left side of page) for more details and help in identifying possible solutions.
Good luck with your new ride and welcome!
