fuse for horn on a 2001 malibu is located under the hood.
there is a fuse (15 amp) in slot #43
and there is a relay in slot #21
if you remove the relay and put it back in wrong the horn will not work.
2001 malibu horn fuse and relay are located in the under the hood fuse box.
location 21 should be the relay
location 43 should be the fuse.
if the relay is put in wrong the horn will not work. if you replaced the relay and the horn stopped working try pulling the relay out and turning it around. and try the horn again.
You would need to check the circuits at the relay. The horn pad grounds the relay to make the horn blow. You should have power at the relay, and a ground from the horn pad when it is pressed. The third wire goes to the horns.
Try disconnecting the horn itself from the circiut,hold the horn button on for a while,if the fuse no longer blows,it's a safe bet the horn itself was the culprit,if it still burns the fuse,the wiring or clockspring are shorting out
Check the wiring around the horn and make sure nothing is touching metal...look under the hood at the horn and make sure everything is pluged in and there is no water on any plugs or wiring...Make sure the fuse is the correct number (ex: 10, 20, 25) If it is still blowing out the fuse then you after you do some checking then it is a short in some wires
Check the horn relay, it is located under the dash near the fuse box. I believe it is on a white box. You may need to purchase a new relay or there could be a problem with the horn button in the steering wheel/column. Check relay first.
the horn is behind the passenger front fender. right in front of the tire. you need to remove the dust cover to gain access to the horn(s).
the picture was shot from underneath the car. you can not get to the horn(s) any other way.
