Default another horn problem
Horn decided not to work. Horn relay clicks but no horn. Any ideas?

Did both horns work before?

When I got my 86' one didn't work at all and the other made a wheezing noise. I replaced both horns and all is well.

Check for power with a test light at the horn connector. Very possible to have 2 bad horns. If power makes it all the way to the connector swap them out. Wait till you see what they cost. Especially the "c" note horn.

Removed both horn connections to look for corrosion. Reconnected after visual inspection but still no sound!

I bought car in June and only one horn worked. I will obtain another horn to see if the problem is in the horn itself.

Thanks.
