In the 2016 Ford Explorer, various factors may lead to the horn malfunctioning. This includes a defective clock spring, a faulty steering column control module, impaired wiring, corroded electrical connections, a blown relay, or a malfunctioning horn or switch. Identifying the root cause can be complex and requires expertise in electrical systems. To troubleshoot effectively, a wiring diagram is essential to track the wiring path from the switch to the horn, which may involve navigating through multiple connectors with varying wire colors. The initial step involves checking if power is reaching the horn switch before proceeding systematically towards diagnosing the horn system.
