1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon - Where is the physical location of the horns?

[guyslp]

I had the issue with the "continuously blowing" horns in the past and more recently the "not blowing at all" both of which seemed to be related to the infamous horn switch in the airbag issue.

I have recently used the fix suggested here: https://youtu.be/GongUtqwHcg
using my original airbag/horn module so I could go back to the original interior color. Having done so, during testing I can clearly hear the horn relay activate, but there are still no horns sounding, so something's off somewhere between the relay and the connections to the horns or with the horns themselves.

The problem is I have not found any good diagrams or photos of where the darned horns are located. They're definitely not on the support in front of the radiator, and I've found information that there is one horn in the right side fender and another in the left, but with covers, I can't be sure.

If anyone has either photographs or any sort of "cut through" diagram that shows the physical location of the horns themselves, would you please share?

I don't know how it is that at least 50% of the time, after having tried and tried to find information before asking, I stumble over the answer minutes afterward. That happened here.

On my '96 Roadmaster Estate Wagon, the horns are tucked into the driver's side (left) fender, up near the top, and hidden quite well by the air filter box. When I went to check the air filter, I discovered them. I also discovered that one of the two was disconnected and appears to have been so for quite some time. I applied some contact cleaner for both horns, and reattached the connection, and one of the two (the one that had been connected) sprung back to life. Even when switching the connections, which are the +12V for each horn, it was still only the one that worked. But still, it's good to have a functioning single horn.

Here are two photos:

It's a grand PITA that this forum will not allow the direct uploading of photos, and if you use cloud storage URLs with the Insert Image option, it can't upload those, either. Thus, the direct links to the photos on my OneDrive that don't show inline here.

You got to learn-know how to do it! I did it for you.
