I have no horn when the ignition is in the off position, on position. No panic on the key fob. But the horn works when the vehicle is running. Anyone have a clue? Thanks

The signal for the horn goes thru the central security module. Check the following fuses in the central junction box under dash. Fuse #29.
In the battery junction box under hood. Fuse #6, 7 and 8.

Check the fuses with a meter not your eyes

OK thanks for that answer, I checked those fuses and everything is fine. When I press the horn button or the panic button on the key fob I can hear a dull thunking noise inside the dash. Is there a relay located there.? I'm guessing the relay has a running side and a passive side.

I believe the horn and cruise control are on the same fuse. If your cruise isn't working either, it may be the fuse. My LO horn crapped out and I picked up one from the wrecking yard, installed it and it blew the fuse... that's how I know it's all tied together. Picked up a new one (oem) on ebay and problem solved. Sounds like a truck horn again and not a VW (HI horn only).

No, the cruise works fine. Yesterday I ordered the Ford factory shop manuals on ebay for a really decent price. They are also throwing in the wiring book too. So maybe I can help someone out here in a few days.
