The horn honks when I lock my car and I switched the relay and the fuse is fine. It just won't honk from the steering wheel when I push it. Any suggestions?? Thanks for any help!

It sounds as if the horn contacts either in the horn pad itself or somewhere in the column are constantly open. You will have to access the bottom of the column and ground the wire that leads to the relay. If you do this and the horn honks, the problem is higher up in the column. These work through the multifunction switch. You can access this by removing the column covers and looking directly down from the top to see a little spring loaded button to the steering wheel. Ground this to see if the horn honks. If it does, you've got a problem in the horn contacts of the steering wheel. If it doesn't honk, you will need a new multifunciton switch.

Try taking the horn out and testing it directly with a car battery.
