71 Roadrunner Horn Switch - 04/09/12 03:30 PM
I need to replace the horn switch on my 1971 Roadrunner....where are the screws located that allow me to remove the steering wheel pad to access the horn switch?
Thanks

depends on which wheel you have. tuff wheel the cap snaps on,other wheel look behind spokes if no screws then gently pry off.what do you mean "horn switch"?horn contacts are part of turn sig switch. horn switch would be in steering wheel pad.did you check fuse and relay?

I have the wheel with the 3 horn buttons......horn sounds when I jump it.....fuse is good......is relay on fuse block?
Thought it would be similar to my E body with the switch in the column....thx

not sure on relay location,might be under dash left of column.should have three prongs.one lead to horns,one 12v ,last ground from column.quick check is use test light,clip grounded ,go to column harness connector.usually a blk wire,touch probe to backend of connector.relay will get grd through t/light and blow horn.a simple tip on elect problems "kiss it" meaning, keep it simple stupid. we tend to over think and pull thing apart before simple steps.please don't misinterpet,not insulting anybody just passing on what works for me.
