Horn

When I bought my truck the horn wasnt hooked up. It has an aftermarket Grant steering wheel. How do I hook it up? Will the wires I need be in the steering column? If so which ones do I need to hook up and where?

Thanks

The wires will be there. But, if you do not have cruise control, you might not be able to hook them up. Most of the aftermarket steering wheels I am familiar with ground the horn wire to activate the horn relay, and make the horn blow. If your truck did not have cruise from the factory, then you do not have a horn relay. Check out the wiring behind the steering wheel and write back in as to what color wires you have.
