Question Stock 05 ES horn... PLEASE help...

Alright, so ive just returned to the states after a few months away walking my way through europe...

I lent my mitsu to a friend to use in that time. but in return he had to get it repared from a previous fender bender. (front end)

i set the appointment before i left and he brought the car in, and back and parked it in my garage, later in mail he told me he only has used it once to get groceries, and he got his car back just a day later, so he garaged it, and there it sat.


I finally get to it today, fresh battery, general fluid maintenance, checking of fuses, tire pressure, pre run, yatta yatta...

but wait, whats this.... no horn...

Fuse... Check
Visual inspection.... Fail

No cable connected to the horn, looks like a black thick standard connection, but no wire leading to it... then i realized, out of everything ive done to my car, ive never once, EVER had to trouble myself with the horn, or its wirings.

I for once... had no idea what the hell i was looking for...

Googled the ever loving christ out of this one to no avail
Damn near burnt out the search feature on this site, plenty of ricer kids wanting to put animal sound horns and big air horns in their cars to be cool. but nothing of an substatance on the original horn, location, wiring location, pin type/ style connector, anything..

Im at the end of what i thought was a long rope. please if anyone has any information on this let me know.

Also i do believe that its just a simple matter of recconecting the wire that comes from "???" to the actual horn mounted on the front...

Anyone?

mine gave out on me at one point. the switch inside the wheel failed. however since it is considered part of the steering wheel / air bag it was replaced under warrenty. i never saw the inner workings
