Default 01 GT Horn Relay

I have seen alot of threads about horns and even some involving talk about the relay for the horn circuit, but no answer on where the horn relay is. I thought it would be in the fuse/relay box under the hood but looked at the manual and only the horn fuse is there. Looked under/behind the dash and didnt really see anything that looked like a relay.anyone know where the horn relay is?

It's up under the dash in the "relay box", along with the washer pump, trunk lid release, and parking lamp relays.[/align][/align]http://www.paladinmicro.com/documents/RelayBox.pdf[/align][/align]It's a bitchy thing to get to, taking the seat out helps...[/align]

Default RE: 01 GT Horn Relay

as soon as i looked at it i felt like a retard, but anyway I found it, thanks for the help, but...the relay seems to work, I can hear it clicking anyway (as long as the fuse is in, doesnt do anything with out the fuse) but when I measure the voltage at the fuse, it doesnt change at all, always 12V. When I pull the fuse and measure each side to ground, the side towards the front of the car is 12V and the side towards the inside of the car is 0. Anyone have any input on this or ideas on what I should see? I would have thought that the horn was grounded and the relay supplied it (through the fuse) with either nothing or 12V to sound the horn. Any Ideas on how I could connect something to the horn fuse outlet to force the horn voltage to be in the on state to see if the horn works. Maybe the relay is supposed to pull the 12V to ground to sound or leave it floating in the off state, I have no idea, I dont want to think about the relay working just suddenly not being wired right? damn this seemingly simple thing is turning out to be a big pain in the ***. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
