Default Horn Relay?

Anyone know where the horn relay is located on a 91.5? I had the dash apart today, fixing some more "custom" wiring from the previous owner. I have good connections at the steering wheel, no continuity through to the horn. Fuse is good. FWIW, I think there are supposed to be two horns from the factory; of course, I'm missing one, wire is cut. I get not continuity on that wire, either, making me think there is a relay acting up. I did not check for power, only continuity. On the upside, the defroster works now (vacuum line was disconnected) and if anyone is looking to fix all the burnt out lights in their dash, NAPA has the correct lightbulb/socket combo. The local guys here did not have the itty-bitty Low Fuel bulb, but a trip to CarQuest solved that trick. I also got the dash bezel repainted, the toolbox mounted, the dash ground strap reattached, 5,034 yards of crappy wiring out of the way, and now the turn signal indicator works, too
...And if you're not going to haul anything more exciting than dead animals and firewood, the Rustoleum gallon bedliner from Wally World looks pretty good with two thick coats. It ain't Rhino lining, but then, it costs a tenth as much and a couple easy hours. I don't think the spray can product can get the application thick enough, but the brush on stuff looks promising for us lightweights. I can always go back over it, and one gallon still has some in it after two apps on my longbed. May try to get the rest put down tomorrow as weather permits...

I think there is just one, mine has just one horn and it has never been messed with, I don't think, I could be wrong though. My steering wheel has to be in just the right spot for the horn to work good though.
