Do you have cruise control? Horn wiring is different between cruise/non-cruise vehicles.
Non-cruise equipped trucks get their power from the headlight switch through a yellow wire that goes from the h/l switch to the horn pad. From there, there is a blue/yellow wire that goes from the horn pad to the horns. The blue/yellow wire won't show any power untill the horn pad is depressed.
If you have cruise, the horn works through a relay.

The yellow wire is the power wire. According to the wiring diagram there is only one solid yellow wire that comes from the headlight switch. Kinda hard to "explain" the location but on the diagram it's in the top row, left terminal. This wire goes to the gray "horseshoe" shaped connector at the steering column. The wire is in the "outside" row, the one with seven spaces. Two spaces on one end of the row are empty. The yellow wire is the first wire on the other end.
