My 99 Q's horn is not working when pressed. However, it will work if I set off the alarm. Where does my problem lye? I thought it was the relay earlier until I discovered the horn/alarm combo.

I had the same problem on my 94Q and it was the $25 horn relay in the main fuse box. If you know someone local with a 99Q you can swap yours out in about 2 minutes with a good unit to verify before buying.

That's a sharp looking Q you've got. Thanks for the advise. I had thought about swapping out my 93 J30 horn relay for the Q45, but thought I better contact infiniti parts to be sure they are the same relays.

Thanks. Doesn't look nearly as pretty today. Had a contractor jet out of a parking spot at work yesterday and take out the passenger side rear door (needs a new one) back to the bumper. The knucklehead admitted to the plant security officer who I called out to take a report and pictures that it was entirely his fault. The officer was nice enough to include it in the report. (It helps that we've worked together for 20 years). Estimate from the body shop is $3700 to fix which is 71% of high blue book. The shop manager says that AAA will say go ahead and repair it.

You might be able to get the Nissan P/N's directly off the horn relays. They pull straight up out of the fuse box.
