- My horn isn't working! How to fix a Chevy Silverado 2500HD horn. My 2016 Chevy Silverado 2500HD horn was not working when I locked the truck and set the alarm. To do this you have to take off the front grill and driver's side headlight to access the horn. This is the same body style as 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 and 2019. I assume the 1500 and 3500 models are also the same.
Tools and Materials needed
Flathead screwdriver
10mm socket
6" crescent wrench
Dielectric grease
Tiny file or sandpaper
Drill with socket adapter or regular hand ratchet
Latex gloves optional

Awesome video. Even for a girl to figure out! No over explanations. Thank you!
Man brotha I appreciate the vid. About a month after I purchased my my truck it was stolen. Got it back in one piece thank god. Horn wasn’t working though. Thanks to your vid I was able to follow step by step and found the perps had disconnected the horn. Again thanks bro you saved me from paying the dealer.
awesome!!! Glad you got your truck back and were able to fix this!
You saved me, thanks. I had heard the only way to access the horn was by removing the bumper. Glad I didn't go that route!! Perfect amount of detail for the project. Had the whole thing apart and accessible in under 10 minutes.
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
Great video!
Now that’s how you make a how to/diy video! Perfect, very informative. Thank you so much!
Glad you liked it!!
@@BorsellinoHomeServicespretty much a useless video I have a 2014 Silverado horn was never located at the corner of radiator instead between radiator and frame couldn't even get to it without taring everything apart
Good job. Well described. If you took your work truck to a mechanic to get horn fixed, you would have lost the better part of a day. No income to offset repair. If a mechanic fires the parts cannon you could be into it for at least an hours labor and parts. You made a no parts needed repair. That is always satisfying.
Yeah and aside from saving money I got a sense of pride by doing it myself!
Thanks for help on my horn didn’t know mine wasn’t working till inspection by state patrol inspector found it
oh snap! hopefully you were able to get it working
@@BorsellinoHomeServices I did works good now
Great job fixing the problem!
woohoo! I forgot about this video!
Great job i was able to fixed my horn, Thank you
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! TOOT TOOT!!!
Like this video explain a lot but also quick
GM makes a non-dielectric grease for electrical connections , its yellow, found usually on headlight connections, they dont put it everywhere cause theyre cheap, get it out the door quick as possible
very interesting!
@@BorsellinoHomeServices actually non dielectric grease can be found in many places
The best
Thanks!
Great video! My 2018 Silverado is doing the same thing when you arm the truck it doesn't beep most of the time....
So you didn't replace the horn? You just cleaned the corroded connections and that did it?
YUP! Just a bad electrical connection in my case. Hopefully it's just as easy for you!
look up dielectric- youll find its first duty is to do all it can to stop electricity moving between items- not what you want in electrical connections - spark plug boots yes, mostly everywhere else no
thanks for the tip!
My horn when pressing the steering wheel does not work but the panic button and lock button all make horn work any idea? I don't get voltage when pressing on horn inside cab.
that would lead me to believe the wire between the steering wheel and the horn is damaged if the horn works for those other things. But I honestly don't know for sure. Luckily mine was the simple connection right at the horn. There is probably videos out there showing how to take the steering wheel apart but I'd be cautious of that because the airbag
There’s 4 bolts in your headlight don’t snap it off like I did haha 😂
OH NO! Did you bend it out farther than what I showed in the video? It was still attached somewhere and I couldn't figure out where or how and I was afraid of breaking it too that's why I just pulled it out enough to get my hand in there
my 2016 GMC 2500 has 4 bolts on the headlamp also…but I chickened out before breaking stuff. The bolt is right above the horn close proximity to the bottom bolt. Couldn’t fit a wrench in to get to it, so I put the truck back together and will contemplate another approach
I have exact same year exact same truck my horn works but when I lock it with my Fob the horn sounds really weak. What should I do? It’s a 2016 with just 34k miles taken extremely good care of it. I just don’t want the dealer to bend me over
I mean it's pretty easy to access, worth taking it apart yourself and seeing if it's just the connection
What if it’s the key fob when you go to click it and it sound weak like a faint sound
If the horn is weak then this might fix it. If I remember correctly, my horn sometimes sounded weak and weird before it died. Then it would work intermittently. It's worth a try before bringing it to a mechanic and paying hundreds of dollars for them to diagnose and maybe fix it. Most mechanics nowadays are just parts swappers so they would put in a new horn and it might just be the connection! Even if you need a new horn if you go through this process and it doesn't work you can swap out the horn easily!
@@BorsellinoHomeServices thanks bro it worked exactly
@milk764 did your horn ever get stuck on after the faint honks with the fob? Mine did, I pulled the fuse out 😢
Is there only one horn? I thought there was a high and a low?
There is a high and low.
oh sweet thanks for letting us know!
email me at borsellinohomeservices@gmail.com and i'll send it right over! 😀
Just asked thr dealership for a repair cost. They said like 450$ and about 3hr of labour. 78$ part... Ya I'm doing it myself.
Thanks for the video, now just to wait until it's not -20c here in Alberta
My 2014 Silverado is absolutely nothing like this.
