Default Horn location?
Where is the horn located on my 2003 STR? Trying to find out why it is not working. All the fuses seem to be good

I'll deal with this problem today.
Diagnostic steps:
fuse
relay (coil resistance 60-80 Ohms, clicking)

check relay pin holes in fuse box:
bat +
to horns
ground
+ from air bag)

horns
Steering wheel

You can see the top half of one directly behind the grill in this pic! <br/>There is two of them on the back side of the bumper post in the middle of the car under the top radiator duct , not a real easy one !

No offense Andy. I know what I am looking for (horn) but from your description and picture, I am at a loss.

Check they are both working. I have replaced 2 horns on my 2005 STR and have never replaced a horn on any other car I have owned.

Ok, so finally got around to testing the horns on my 03 STR. Power is going to them but they are not working. Time to replace. Suggestions on what to use? Something louder than stock replacement?
