Everytime I press the horn, it makes a clicking sound thats coming from underneath the dash but the horn is not working. Is it that my horn is out or what? Thanks guys! I have the '89 model so no abs.

Clean the contacts and ground bolt on the horn assy.

Even though there's clicking under the dashboard? I failed to mention that it use to just go off sometimes and I would have to press the horn so that it would stop blowing.

I dont know if 89 had cruise control but you might want to check to see if the wires are burnt up. One of those wires are a ground to the horn. It was the case for me

If the horn AND cruise don't work, it's most likely the clockspring.

Well when I took the horn switch off, the wires were in perfect condition. My cruise works great and evrything looks fine behind the pad of the steering wheel.

I have the same problem. My 89 has working cruise, and being a cali car has no corrosion on the wiring at the horn. I too hear a relay clicking down inside the dash.

The noise in the dash is the Unicorn that blows the horn when you push the button. They are too busy poking holes in your mufflers and ******** in your filters to honk for you.

Have you looked at the horn? The wires? The connectors?

Just went outside and murdered my non horn blowing, filter ******** Unicorn.
Step 1 complete.
No more noise under the "dash"
Step 2
Open the hood, look for wires that dont go anywhere.
Step 3
Unplug the horn, the connectors and wire were not connected to anything.
Step 4
Find blue wire that also didnt go anywhere from step 2
Step 5
Reconnect wire, plug in horn.
Step 6
New Unicorn is born under your dash, horn starts blowing again.
Step 7
Open another beer.

Basically, do a multimeter at the horn connectors. Juice=bad horns. No Juice=you need to check the wiring.

You've got to find out if the horn is getting power, or it's all just conversation. You could even use a turn signal bulb. If the bulb lights when you have a buddy press the enhonkerator, you need a new honk audiblizer.
