i say clockspring, there is a recall about it? if you haven't had it replaced and you bought the van new, call the dealership and it will be replaced for free. i am surprised that the airbag light isn't on.

Suggested Repair

Check the fuses under the hood. If those are good, the clockspring is the likely cause of the horn and cruise failing together; if the van was bought new and the clockspring was never replaced, contact the dealer about a possible free recall replacement.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan says the horn and cruise control failed at the same time after known fuses and relays were checked. One expert asks whether the under-hood fuses were checked. Another suggests the clockspring, notes a possible recall that may cover free replacement for an original owner, and is surprised the airbag light is not on.
