I was putting my horn in today, and they did not work. Since I pulled my wiring out I wonder if I am missing something. They both have good grounds, on the relay I hooked up the double connector in the first location, the hot from the fuse block to the middle, and the single black wire to the end terminal, still no horn. I also did a search, and found no 69 relay answers that would help. I knoticed that I had no power at the orange wire, should that be attached to acc. block......... Any takers...Thanks........................................Mark

you can always test it on your battery. prong on the horn is +. then ground it on the frame with a wire from the -. easy way to test them. some horns have adjustment screws.

Everything at the wheel is new, and worked great before I took it apart, that's why I am sure its the wiring to the horn relay........................................Mark

A good test; Try to ground the prong out on the end of the horn relay that the green wire hooked to. You should hear a 'click' when the magnet inside the relay energizes and causes the arm to move over and make the power connection for the horn. No 'click' and your horn relay doesn't work.
