Hi Sergio,

If you have fixed the wiring then the next thing is to test to see if you have power going to the horns when you are pressing the horn switch. If you do not, then the relay is most likely the issue. If you do have power then the horns themselves are the issue.

I attached the wiring diagram and a guide on how to test wiring. Let me know if you have questions. Thanks

It is the relay but I do not know where it is. No power comes out when I hit the panic button.

Ok. You need to the alarm horn and see if you have power to the horn when you activate the alarm. If you have power then your horn has failed. If not, then we need to start tracing the power back through the system.

Am I understanding correctly that only your alarm horn does not work. Does it work when the steering wheel horn switch?
