Default Horn, Click

When I press my horn button, I hear nothing but a click under the dash. I'm going to test each horn (there's 2, is that normal?) and see if they work direct from battery. Anyone know what the click could be though?

I would assume the click is your relay working. I think your on the right track with the test you are going to do. I would also check all the wires and connections while your in there.

I'll test each horn, then check the plug for power.

Is it normal to have 2 horns, one in the center in front of radiator, then one more to the passenger side?

Holy cow man...........I think it is time to get rid of this car and get another ...... way too many electrical problems ,,,

yes 2 horns is perfectly normal.. they have the high and the low horn,, ( sound ... not position ) ..chk to see if you get power and ground at the wiring ,, get a test lite hook one side to 1 wire the other end of test lite touch the other wire,, have someone depress the horn, button , that is how the horn gets the ground at the steering wheel column ,,

if you get both power and ground and no sound ,than you got bad horn (s ) ,, yes i have seen both go bad more than once ...
