Do your turn signals function properly? To test the clock spring, turn the wheel 90 degrees and try the horn, continue to turn the wheel lock to lock in 90 degree increments and see if the horn ever functions.

If it works in any of the positions then the clock spring is suspect. If your turn signals don't behave properly or there is a clicking sound when turning the wheel, your clock spring could be bad.

 

I am currently running down the same issue as you are I am thinking it is just the horn itself at this moment.

 

that what it ended up being. She wanted a louder one, so we ended up getting upgraded versions of both horns (high and low pitch).

 

Kinda crazy to this that both the right and left horn went out in such a short amount of time. Do you happen to know direct location of the horns and what you might have changed it out with?

 

I thought the same thing, which is why it never even crossed my mind to suggest checking for voltage at the horns directly. But I suspect most likely what happened is one horn failed first, but that wasn't obvious enough to be detected since horn blasts typically are pretty short. However once the second horn failed, it was very obvious there was a problem. I guess the original poster's situation was another example of the KISS principle.

this is what needs to be done to get to the horns. pretty easy.

 

yes sir.
