Default Horn stopped working!

It was the weirdest thing...about a week ago I went to lock my car and noticed that when I click the lock button twice the horn didn't go off like usual. I didn't think much of it and later that day went to honk at someone and noticed that the horn no longer works. This ever happened to anyone. I am thinking it's prolly just a fuse but, haven't made time to check it out yet. Anyone have any other guesses?

Do your brake lights work? I think they're on the same fuse. You probably ought to check that soon. There are extra fuses in the box, too.

It's probably the fuse. I doubt that your horn would burn out that quickly. Do you use a "CLUB" device on your car?? A co-worker of mine used one of those and it slipped and hit the horn and burned it out.

If the brake lights work it's not the fuse. Then you may check the connector behind the front grill. Unclip and using light force bent the pins slightly and then clip it. It worked for me 2 months ago.
