Horn not working on 1999 z28 camaro / what could be the problem / it worked last year.
Remove the horn it's self and try grounding the mount and then put power to the post,if it won't blow try tapping on it.If that does'nt work the try adjusting the screw thats in the rear of the horn to see if you can make it work,if not get a new horn.If the horn blew when you bench tested it then you need to see if you have power to it with a multi meter or a test light,if yes,clean the grounds where it mount both on the car and on the horn mount.If no,then you need to check fo power from the horn button to the relay by useing the test light or multi-meter again and check the relay feed,[#85 or 86 in the relay socket] for power from the horn button.If you have power on either then replace the relay,if not then the horn button is not working and the stearing wheel needs to come off to find out what you need.This replier is assumeing that you have already checked the horn fuse,right?
It could be the horn or the horn relay or the fuse. Start with the fuse, look in your manual or on the fuse cover for the horn fuse. If the fuse is good, use a test light to make sure there is power to the fuse. Find the horn relay, test for power to the relay, there should be power on two of the four legs of the box where the relay fits in. Take the cover off the relay and manually engage the relay. If you have power and at this point the horn blows, you have to go to the horn pad, If there is power and no horn, suspect the horn. Go to the horn and test for power at the horn when someone pushes the horn pad. IF you have power at the horn, and no horn, replace the horn.
Hope this helps.
Well, it could be a fuse. Check the associated fuse, if it is ok then proceed to checking for power at the horn (it should have 12v). If the horn has power then replace the horn. If it does not then seek proffesional certified help due to the fact that the problem is going to be in the steering column or horn pad, and that will require dealing with the airbag system (which is NOT recommended) unless qualified.
So if you press the steering wheel and dont hear click from the relay does that mean the relay not working checked the fuse already
Fo the camaro with horn problem,remember nowdays ther will allway's be power the ground is switched by relay, or possibly in coloulm
