The fuse box location itself is usually near the battery, but it can vary slightly depending on the trim level of your Cavalier. Look for a labeled box with a fuse diagram on the lid.
Without your owner's manual, you'll need to:
1. Locate the underhood fuse block: This is the most likely location.
2. Carefully examine the fuse block cover: It should have a diagram showing the fuse layout. Look for a fuse labeled "Horn," "Horns," or something similar. Sometimes the diagram uses symbols instead of words.
3. Check fuses visually: Look for a blown fuse (a broken filament inside).
If you can't find it in the underhood fuse box, there might be a smaller fuse panel inside the car, but this is less likely for the horn circuit.
Remember to always disconnect the negative battery cable before working with fuses to prevent electrical shocks or accidental shorts.
