Horn quit working
So, I woke up this morning and went for a drive only to find out, the one time I wanted to blow my horn, it doesnt work, go figure.
I have checked the fuse,swapped the relay and checked for voltage at the horn (of which there is none) when I press the steering wheel horn button(s). So I am thinking it could be the switch in the horn but I am not sure how to take the sterring wheel cover off. Anyone have any ideas? Or has done this before? TIA
And for the wisecracks out there the horn doesnt blow and neither does the driver

Unfortunately, the horn switch is integrated inside the steering wheel airbag area so the entire module needs to be replaced according to those that have had this issue. It's not cheap.

I wouldn't mess with it, airbags are expensive.....
If it wasn't for state inspection, I wouldn't even fix the damn horn..... I would just yell out the window "Hey azzhole.... Get out of my way!!!"
