2004 GMC Savana 2500 horn stopped working. Fuse is good. Horn is good ( removed and applied 12 v directly to horn). Relay is also operating properly. I have 12v at fuse and at relay. Could it be the horn button at steering wheel ? And if so, am I able to get to it without disturbing the airbag ? Thank You.

Sounds as if it is the switch button, working around the SRS is dangerous work and you will need special tools to remove wheel and airbag, best left to a professional, you have done all the leg work so let them do the rest, if you deploy the air bag you risk serious injury and a huge extra repair bill.

Thank you very much for the reply. I was afraid you were going say that ( lol ) . Will check wires to steering column and leave the rest to the pro's.
