Are you getting power TO the horns? Does the horn button provide power, or ground?

Then the question becomes is it always power, and the various items just provide ground path?

It doesn't work at all? Got wiring diagrams? I think yer gunna need 'em.

So it was working before you changed all the relays and fuses? Please start over and clarify what you have one and why?
