Horn Broken

My horn just quit working yesterday. Checked the fuse and it is good. Do the horns just break? What else should I check before I take it in?

Check connections at the horn, check the horn for voltage, test the circuits

Stop with the road rage and the horns will last longer.

It's not unusal for them to quit working although it is rare. Pull the connector and connect a test light between it and a good ground, then have a buddy press the button. If it lights then the circuit is good. I believe there's a relay under the hood or on the fuse panel, that could have quit too.

Wanted to post an update. Apparently when I was cleaning the mud out of the fender wells the high pressure sprayer blew out the connector at the horn. Plugged it back together and it all works again.
