I think the PO removed it (certainly removed the horns and the horn buttons not connected to anything).
In order to pass inspection I have to wire in horns, but I want to identify/find the relay if it's still on the car. No idea where it's supposed to be located. Doesn't appear to be located on the back of the fuse panel (according to Haynes). Soooo, where izit, lol? Thanks! |

Relay is one of the black round ones fitted to the fuse panel:
From Fuse #11 - solid red to terminal 30 on relay From Fuse #8 - red with white trace to terminal 86 on relay From relay - black with yellow trace from terminal 87 on relay to horn(s) From ignition switch terminal 37 - brown with white trace to terminal 85 on relay. Horn(s) are grounded to chassis at multi-ground 84? which I believe is under the headlight or 85 which is the chassis ground next to the fuse panel. The brown wire in the steering column comes from the horn ring behind the combo switches thru the steering wheel and connects to the horn pad. It is a ground. From a '73 wiring diagram .............. |

Hmm...I'll be out in the garage a lil later to change out this relay. I wonder if the horn relay being bad would cause the entire fuse block position #8 to be dead? Must look at the flow chart when I get a chance.... |
