    Horn has never worked!

    My "new" 97 SS has been great in every way-save for the fact that the horn has never worked. Is this likely to be a fuse or something else simple?

    When mine wasn't working it was because one of the wires was disconnected. Crawl under there and check it out if you haven't already.

      Pull the fuse, if it isnt the fuse, check the wire, if it isnt the wire get an air horn from the dollar store or something, or just buy a new horn. hehe.

        And make sure you're pushing the little button on the dash, not the steering wheel. Yellow_Flash_Colorz: hehe. j/k.

          If after doing all of the above and you determine that the horn is getting power then try adjusting the set screw on the horns. Sometimes if a horn is left unused for a period of time it actually gets stuck and readjusting the set screw will get it working again, throwing them on the ground also works. The screw is usually located between the horns. Try turning it a little either way while someone is pressing the horn button. The hardest part of about this is getting access to the horns. If all else fails its time to replace them.
