Horn Relay?
The horn on my 66 Landau stopped working today. Not the fuse, because when I try to honk the horn, there is a clicking sound coming from under the hood. Can't locate it, but suspect it's the horn relay. Does that sound correct? If so, where is it? Thanks!

On the 1966 Thunderbird, there is a horn relay only if you have the Hiway Pilot speed control. It is located on a support brace under the dash, above the driver's left foot. Cars without Hiway Pilot have no horn relay. The click you hear may be the horn.. Without Hiway Pilot, the horn circuit is from the battery to the horn switch by way of sliprings under the steering wheel, then to the horns. No grounds in the system except at the horns.

Hmm... Thanks, Harley. No speed control, so the clicking is just the horns. There appears to be an adjustment screw on the horns themselves. What does that do?

If you have a non-working horn, you may be able to get it to work by adjusting the air gap at the vibrating points. Apply voltage to the horn with it grounded and try adjusting.
