I feel like the list of problem after taking the car out of storage after 2 years is just starting, but anyway the horn stopped working a few days ago and I am not sure how to test it?

The first thing I did is checked the battery after letting the car rest overnight (about 13V) and tested the fuses in the engine bay and they were all good. Not sure what else to test..
Alternator? Grounds?

It looks like every other electronics are working fine (although the blinkers have occasionally stopped working, it seems).

Sounds like a relay is going bad or maybe your CCRM is going bad. Ive changed a few before for issues similar to this. A 94 gt twice, 96 cobra vert, and a new edge gt.

Where can I find the relay?
The cruise control works fine by the way.

Put 12v to the horn and see if works. Easiest way to test the horn itself.

Check the horn first. You can put power to the blue wire and it should work. Just make sure the horn is grounded. The CCRM is located on the passenger side inner fender if that does end up being the issue.

I will give that a shot if I can find the damn horn. I wish the previous owner didn't relocate the battery to the trunk, that's going to make it more annoying to test.

Thanks [Smile]

I think your car has two horns. One on each side. Those can be seen from underneath or its behind the plastic inner fender. Cant remember which is it.
