My horn barely makes a sound when locking the door and when pushing the horn on the steering wheel. So do I needs to replace the horn its self and where is it located?

Hi,

The horn is behind the inner fender (front) on the passenger side. Here are the directions for replacement. Note: You will need to remove the right front tire to perform the service.

Here are the directions. The attached pics correlate with the directions.
