I will try that! Sometimes it makes me wonder about Toyota. I mean come on the horn stops working cuz of a clock spring stupid design!

If so, free recall, safety oriented clock spring.

Now’s your chance to get a Dixie horn!

Or a train horn! Haha

So from what I have read. If the spiral cable goes out the horn, airbag light and cruise control won't work? Where is the relay located?

Why only these years? Toyota uses the same on all the truck

Did you ever try your horn to the battery like @OR17TRD said? Maybe it’s a lot simpler repair than the spiral cable.

 

[MattScatt425]

I need to get some jumper cables before I try that

Are the fuses good? Wiring corroded or messed up?
It’s easy for the wiring to get messed up and corroded where the horn is located in the Tacoma.
Hopefully this is another simple repair like your last one!

Yeah fuses are good. Replaced it just in case. I will look harder tomm. Yea I sure hope so! I'm just waiting to pull the trigger on the spiral cable..

I figured it out. The spiral cable is bad. Turned the steering wheel and the horn worked. Horn doesn't work with the steering wheel centered

 

[MattScatt425]

So my next question is. Should I buy a cheap clock spring off ebay? Or a Used OEM one? Or brand new? Thanks guys

My friends mom in high school had a car and when she would make a left hand turn it would start honking it wouldn’t work any other time, so we would hang out the windows and wave every time she would turn left haha. People be staring.

If it was me I’d get an OEM. Or at least one that’s made by a reputable company. lol. Maybe even salvage yard.

Would you go with a Used OEM?

 

[OR17TRD]

Would you go with a Used OEM?

I think you’d be ok with one. Typically they last longer than the truck itself.

Absolutely. You’d be fine.

Figured I would call Toyota corporate and ask if they would help. Said no but if there is a recall for the 2012 model they will reimburse me hahaha. Toyota is a joke sometimes.
