Horn Problem....

[Pond scum]

I have a 1973 CJ5 that the horn has quit working on. I have not found any in-line fuses the check or replace. Can anyone one tell me where to start looking or what to test?

Thanks in advance.

first place is to get a manual like Chiltons or Haynes with a wiring diagram

after you get a manual you may be able to find the horn relay and replace it.

I actually have one. I think it has to do with the horn brush. I just read and found out what a horn brush is and understand it now. The horn brush is still on the Jeep. Can these go bad?

I had some issues with it before but didn't know what it was back then.

Chase down the grounds first.
They tend to be a little crusty after this long.
