check the horn relay. check to see if there is a wire lose in the steering wheel (take off the airbag. 2 screws in back ) Make sure it is getting juice. check the ground connection.

I think there is a horn relay as well. Consult your owners manual 1st, there should be a chart towards the back somewhere. The grille will need to be removed to access the actual horns on your truck. Raise the hood then remove all those plastic clips on the panel around the hood latch. Then remove the 3-4 screws on the top of your grille. The grill simply unsnaps (pull forward) at each end between the headlamps/parking lights. The horns should be seen easily now, bolted to the radiator support. My 2004 GMC (similar truck), has a single horn on each side (rt & left).
