SOURCE: horn , power windows and sunroof all stoped

This wold indicate that you have a shorted horn circuit. Generally, the horn circuit has a negative contact at the steering wheel, meaning when you push the button, it grounds (-) the sysem causing the relay out in the engine compartment area to provide 12V (+) directly to the horn. If nothing else causes the fuse to blow, the pwr window/sunroof., then either the relay itself is shorting out or a wire to the horn is grounding, or you have a bad horn. (spend a few fuses & save time, unplug the relay, replace the fuse & press the horn button & see if the fuse blows. Next, plug in the relay & do the same for the horn)

Generally it won't be the wire from the horn button or the horn would be working continually. Your owners manual should tell you where the relay is & you could see if you notice any unusual appearance to the case, as well as following the wiring from there to the horn, to see if any damage is apparent. IE: if the horn is located in the front grill area or near a opening in the fenderwell, does it appear a rock or something has hit it or any wiring causing damage. With a vehicle as new as yours, if it isn't obvious damage, I would suspect the relay. good luck

if you check the wire that comes from the horn button to the relay for voltage when the horn is pushed and have voltage then you have a bad relay,if not then you probably have bad contacts in the horn pad area or even the clock spring itself.

SOURCE: horn does not work, horn

if you take a test light and test all the fuses in the fuse box and if they are good then when pushing on the horn button you can usually hear the horn relay working(click).if it does then you need to check the horn itself.take a wire and run it from the battery positive cable and connect it to were the horn wire connects to the horn,it should blow(make sure of a good connection),if it does then it could be a dirty connection at the horn.if it doesn`t blow then the horn needs replacing.you can also use the test light and test for power at the horn wire at the horn itself to see if the horn is being feed power from the horn button to the horn.

Find fuse for horn on 2010 jeep patriot

In my opinion, the problem isn't a fuse. ,Check for horn codes, These are manufacturer specific codes. You will need code reader that will work with your vehicle and read manufacturer specific codes.

Where is the fuse for the horn and what is the number? Thank you

the schematic does use numbers. sure but there is NONE.
why not ask how to diagnose it and not guess?
here ill look at alldata.com (so can you)
prior to about 2007, there was a horn fuse, not now.

OPEN hood, see that TIPM box, with zillions of fuses and relays.
BINGO. its all there on one box, thus its name .

it also is a slave computer to the can-bus masters .
Ill quote the FSM now.
"to diagnose the horn system requires the use of a scan tool"
do you know why?
ill explain, the button is pressed, the Cluster brain sees that and sends
a command (serial CAN-bus data) to TIPM box, it receives, it
and activates the horn driver module (be that a relay or transistor)
and the horn honks. (that module has no socket)

if you get COMM errors, then the horn can fail
even with all horn parts good end to end.!!!!
see? all that magic, with distributed processing?
Allen Turning with be shocked. (or eat his apple, RIP)

bad news, the horn relay is soldered into the TIPM
that cant stop me , I have a pro soldering station. (since 1975)

DTCs (scans)
U0141?

all this fancy junk started in 2007 , making scan tools mandatory

ok took, me awhile to find your answer, (due to blurry schematics online)
there is NO HORN FUSE, so your ASSUMPTION is wrong.
the TIPM fuse main power is ALL, to IT, is all the power it needs
to drive the horn and other things, and that is not blown because the TIPM goes dead
and with that vast other things, bringing us full circle back to square 1.

why not scan it first, like your ASE pro will do, step one.

Horn stopped working, fuse and relay is good

With test light check voltage at horn assembly on both wire's, could only have one, horn assembly itself could be ground, have some one press horn button while checking, if there is voltage replace horn assembly, if no voltage horn pad at streeing wheel bad. that's being fuse and replay are good.
