I am trying to get my horn working which had been disconnected by the PO. I was looking under the dash of the drivers side and came across these two wires with no idea where they go and what they are for.
Hopefully someone can clue me in and tell me where they plug into. I also hope one of them is for the horn. thanks!

Maybe I'll shoot an email to the PO. I can turn a wrench but i've never been great at diagnosing or figuring $hit like this out. Thanks for the responses.

After almost getting backed into by an old dude in an SUV and having to rely on screaming and someone pounding on his window to get him to stop I want my horn to work.

If you can locate the horn wires you could just install a switch or button somewhere else than the steering wheel..easy on off button would work. Steering colom complicates things becasue of the turning movement.

On an older car I installed an overdrive switch on the top of the shifter - you could put a micro push-button in the shifter pattern plug and power a relay for the horn.

connector on 1st pic is the horn contact connector for cars with airbag (brown/white wire, grounds horn relay), the one on 2nd pic must be an aftermarket one (2 black wires), never seen anything like that in my 951 cabin harness (just completed refubrishing)

the 2 connector pic looks like the connector that goes to the key cylinder to display what gear you are in on the instrument cluster. At least when I hooked my daughters back up, that is what lit up.
