    Troubleshooting Horn

    I'm guessing the solenoid is bad. My theory: :idea: With the engine warm, it causes the coil in the solenoid to expand just enough to create an open circuit, therefore no magnetic field is created to pull in and actuate the valve.

    Check the circuit breaker up on the firewall. Pull both leads out of the breaker, check them with a VOM, one of them should be hot, if so, breaker is bad. If not, dig further back to the source. Download Peter Bog's schematic, if you haven't already.
