Hello...

My Horn just stopped working, I checked fuse and horn relay both OK, horn works when I use the FOB to lock doors and it also works when I push the panic button on the FOB. Any suggestions would be greatly apreciated...

Thank You...

My guess is the "clock spring" in the steering wheel is bad. Usually, the air bag light will come on with it.
