I bought a 94 F150 and its great, but the horn does not work, and I need to fix it in order to pass inspection here in NJ, please tell me what I can do, Relays are fine and new.

 

Does the relay click when you hit the horn? If not, fuse C 30 amp under hood powers the horn relay. Have you checked for power at the horns with horn depressed? Checked horn ground?

 

That fuse is good as well. Im wondering if the horn itself is bad, but dont know where under the hood it is located to checkor replace it.Any idea?

 

Passengers back side of radiator support

 

also could be the clockspring. i have same year and had to replace mine when cruise, airbag, and horn all died. not so hard to do, but very time consuming.

 

Any idea what replacing the clockspring in going to run me? $$$?? For parts?

 

Do you not have power to the horns? Let's not jump to conclusions here.

 

Ive just been searching around, the net for some help, and stumbled upon some info pertaining to the airbag light, blinking in sequence. Mine is blinking 3 times then 2 times, then a pause and repeats again, My horn has no indication of any power at all, does this info help you with helping me any better, and by the way, thanks for helping with finding the horn to begin with..found it no problem,

 

OK, yes it sounds like your clockspring may be defective.

 

Sounds like the clockspring, they're spendy from the dealer but if you goto the junkyard you can pick them up for cheap. They're kind of a pain to put in, mostly because you have to remove the steering wheel.

 

Thanks, well, Im gonna attempt to replace it this week, any info or help you may have on that would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
