    Default my horn doesnt work

    i got an integra a couple weeks ago and i noticed the other day that my horn doesnt work. i checked all fuses that i could think of that could possibly be related to the horn (interior lights, intrument lights, cigarette lighter, turn signals, headlights, power locks, power windows) and all of them were good. i know its not that big of a deal but when im driving and some dumbass pulls out in front of me i wanna be able to use my horn. Does anyone have any idea what could cause it not to work or how i could fix it???

    since you checked all the fuses best thing i know to do without seeing it in person is find a wiring diagram and a volt meter and start checking for power and you'll eventually figure out what's wrong.

    thanks ill try that. i just would rather not have to take apart anything if i dont have to. i dont have time.

    also thanks for that story about the ex and the horn. it was very entertaining. it almost made me forget about my horn that doesnt work.

    if you have checked your fuse's already then check the horn relay. Also have someone push your horn button while you have a test light attached to the positive lead on the horn and see if the test light comes on while the button is depressed. If it comes on then you have a faulty horn. If it does not come on then you have either a bad Horn relay, bad horn button, or bad continuity between a connector some where.
