Spent the day with the truck today. Retested the horn wiring to horn relay and found the hot wire. The problem is most certainly at the steer wheel now I do believe.
and to: benbuilder... I have been busy but I will email you again when I slow down and see about those two parts you have that I need

I have a question: for anyone really.
In your top picture with the two ***** attached to the black bracket which is bolted to the bottom of the dash..... Why would the factory install these two *****, with the mounting bracket to the bottom of the dash like this?
Or..... why didn't the factory mount the two ***** and their cables, in line with those other 5 ***** that are already in the dash, from the factory? (6 in my truck)
(Common sense tells me it was probably because they could not run the two cables to where they needed to go if the ***** were mounted in line with the others).
Just curious

Two types of heaters - recirculating and fresh air. Only the fresh air system got the two cables and bracket. Made it very simple to add those two cables and bracket if needed or not if not.

Before loosening the 6 door hinge bolts
After loosening the 6 door hinge bolts, hard to see if the door moved up in the second group of door hinge bolt pics but it must have because the door shuts much better now

I was out at my truck today - learned a few things around the dash *****.
I am adding a vid (below) that explains it.
So I DO have both TEMP & HEAT ***** with working cable controls but they both were re-located and I believe this was so the original owner could mount and use a C.B. that he mounted just behind and below where these two ***** were located when it came from the factory.
