Thanks for the advice about under the steering wheel. I will take a look at that.

The relay box with the fuses LOOKS ok. No corrosion, etc.

There is a bundle of wires that start against the firewall on the driver's side. A plug-in sprouts out there but is not plugged in to anything. This wire runs into a fuse/relay box. Then it runs from the fuses/relay box to the horns (two horns - one low, one high tones). It has 3 plugs there, two of which are connected to the horn and one (female connector) that is not plugged into anything. Then the wire continues to run along the bumper and another plug-in (male connector) sprouts out of the cable but is not plugged into anything. This means there are 3 plugs not connected to anything.

I found some diagrams and best as I can figure the harness that could be missing is the clock-switch harness, that controls the horns and the airbags. This costs anywhere between $200 and $400 depending on where you go. Once the shop that screwed up the horn looks at it (on Wed), if they refuse to fix things, I've found another shop where I'll take the truck and see what they tell me.
