    I have same issue…replaced the horn. I know it works, but it still wont work when I press steering wheel and the fuse box diagram does not show a relay?? I can hear a clicking sound at the fuse box for about 30 seconds then fuse blows… even popped off the center cover on steering wheel but being a newer model, there’s nothing there. Any suggestions are welcome.

    Make , model an year of your vehicle ? Let's start with that . What fuse pop's ? number fuse an location - underhood fuse box , instrument panel fuse box ? If a fuse pop's you have a electrical short circuit. something in that circuit is touching ground (metal ) . Some newer vehicles have non serviceable relays , PCB - printed circuit board relay's , soldered right on the circuit board inside the fuse box.

    Also newer vehicles the horn switch wiring goes through the clock spring inside the top of the steering column ,would need to pull steering wheel to get to it. Besides horn not working is the air bag light staying on with the vehicle running ?

  • The junction box under the hood Udrivers side by the battery) has a relay and a fuse that is the power feed for the horn. Start with checking them.

    Good diagram. Check out the contacts on the horn terminal as well.

Horn doesnt work on 1999 chevy silverado 1500 z71

Check the horn relay in the circuit panel, and the wire harness to the horns, could also be a bad ground.

2005 chevy avalanche heater motor shutting off when applying electric brakes on trailer

was the electric brake control module professionaly installed? first check the ground behind the module and make sure it doesnt share the same one as your heater. too much current on a poor ground can cause both circuits to quit working.

I have 2007 Chevy Silverado. Yesterday when I was in work someone told me my Horn was blowing in my truck (It was off and I do not have an alarm system) Tried pressing at the steering whell to see if...

My guess would be your clock spring has a frayed wire. A common GM issue
Also check your fuses, wiring to horns, and relays.

Chevy Avalanche horn stopped working

you may have bad horn, take a test light and see if power is going to horn when horn is pushed, if theres power going to it then you have a bad horn,if theres no power to it then check the horn relay. but il bet if the fuse is good then the horns are bad.

2002 Chevy Avalanche horn does not work.

Using a test light check for power at the horn while someone pushs the horn button. also check for bad fuses or relays that are very well labeled in your underhood and dashside fuseblocks. If you have power but the horn dont blow, replace the horn. If you dont have power, go back and dig through fuses and relays. One of these will help to fixya!! Good Luck
