    Horn

    Horn used to work, now when i hit it all I hear is a clicking noise from under the dash. The fuse is good. Is this a relay? How do I fix it?

    Oh jeeze, I can't even remember now...

    My car has been apart for faaaaar toooo long.

    I want to say it was somewhere under the dash near the steering column. Just press the horn until you can narrow down where the click is coming from.

    I tried to replace the relay in my '88 once, but the horn button was sticking or something and it was sparking when I tried to put the relay in... so I said screw it.

    Horn

    Replaced the relay. The new relay is also just making a clicking noise. The fuse is good and the cigarette lighter does work. Any other ideas ?

    Check for power and ground(if only 1 wire will be power and self grounding) at the horn itself.Have someone push the horn button and then check.Might be just a bad horn.
    Love Fords but also partial to Chebbies
