Default 99 Sonata horn location (not working)

My 1999 Horn is not working. So Its either the switch on the wheel (I hope not) or a bad cable harness or horn. I can check the horn but can not find it. Can some one tell me where they hid it? You can allways toot it and see...I can't [:@]

Thanks!

Ok I found at least two 10 Amp fuses that were bad. I will have to check the rest tomorrow and get them replaced. I will post back to see what gets fixed lol. BTW I do not have any fuse cover to tell me what fuse is what....

OK Fuses replaced wires connected to horn but when I push on the horn it feels VERY empty and like there is no horn contact. Can anyone with a 99 verify this feeling when they push the horn button down? Its weird its like there is no airbag (and I do have an airbag light on). I asked the tech at the dealer and he said if the air bag deployed then the wheel would be toast. My wheel :looks" fine just feels empty.

Note that is for a 99 Sonata. Other years will differ.

Thanks Doohickie!
Since I can not locate a manual your help is very useful for me.
Three questions:
1. Can you tell me where the horn relay is?
2. Can you email me the file you attached I could not view and assume its the graphics show what numbers are associated to which fuse physically. My fuse box has no numbers.
3. Again asking my airbag light is on not sure if its related to the horn problem. BUT it feels empty when I push in to sound the horn. I know this sounds stupid but I am wonder if ther is even any contact under the pad. Is this the "relay" you are refering to? Is this part of the airbag assembly?
