  1. does anyone know where the horn relay is on a 1995 honda civic ex with
    a SOHC vtec engine/ 5 speed tranny. my horn won't work and I can't
    figure out what and I bought a haynes manual and it doesn't really help
    me out on the relays. any help please with the exact location... Thanks.

    It's at the far upper left corner of the under-dash fuse box.

    Do your brake lights work? If so, then the fuse is OK (same fuse as for the
    horns). If the brake lights DON'T work, check the 20A fuse in the box on
    the right shock tower.

    Unplug the relay from its socket. Find the blue/red wire behind the socket
    and ground that terminal (only for a second or so). Do the horns blow?
    If the horns DO NOT sound, then the relay is fine and the problem is at the
    horns themselves. If the horns DO sound, then the problem is either the
    relay or the cable reel behind the steering wheel.

    Has the car ever been in a frontal collision? The horns are behind the
    bumper and are frequently damaged in collisions.

  4. no what happened is that I took my steering wheel off and then put it
    back on and I connected the plugs back together and then all the sudden
    my cruise control and horn don't work. I'm wondering what the issue is
    cause I mean I didn't touch any wires or anything. and I plugs the
    yellow connectors behind the steering wheel together and stuff. any
    ideas and no my car has never been in a wreck.

  5. It's a good bet the problem is in the area where you were working. Maybe
    there is a ground wire floating around now?

    Check ALL your fuses. Both boxes of them. If you didn't disconnect the
    battery's negative terminal prior to messing around, there's a good chance
    you blew a fuse.

    You DID check to see if your brake lights work, didn't you?
