I've read all of the posts regarding horns, very helpful. My embarrassing question is, where is the relay?   I can't find it.

By the way, here is the problem:   Horn not working, but you can hear the relay activating - pretty loud noise actually, but can't locate it. If that is the case, does that rule out the relay as a root cause?   Don't see any issues in the wiring visually.

Thanks, Ed

if you can hear the relay click loud.. it's probably a bad relay... my Rambler horn worked if I did not overheat the horn relay, and when I did, it would stop working and I would get a loud click.... front driver side under the hood, is where they are on '65 Americans, I'd check there

The click is coming from the firewall area on the driver side, I just can't put my finger on the dang thing.   Maybe it's inside the car under the dash.
