Cant find the fuse panel on my 1980 cadillac eldorado. need to change fuses for horn and wipers

More then likely the horn relay is stuck closed ,sounding the horns all the time . The horn gets power from the power seats circuit breaker ,no fuse . Relay located in under hood relay center .

Along with all the other fuses.

this is located under the dash to the left of the steering colume , some have a plastic cover covering the panel.

just had the same problem with my 94 eldorado wipers not working, took to a shop and they said the terminal to fuse in the truck for the wipers was loose

On 1980 Cadillac there is no cutoff switch, On EFI CAR they are
controled by the computer control module, on DFI CARS there is
RELAY next to the fuse also has fusePanel on the left side of car under dash
Depends on size of engine. EFI CARS only have a 20 amp fuse.

On this website you find fuse box diagram and description for Cadillac Eldorado (1996)

I suggest check the LH Maxi Fuses (Seats/Horn), also can find it in your 1995 Cadillac Eldorado - Owners Manual (page 325).

The fuse block is located in the glove box behind an access panel on Eldorado and Seville. There are 2 fuse blocks on 1992-98 Eldorado and Seville, one located in the left-hand side of the engine compartment, on the wheelwell and the other is located on the side of the trunk. To determine if a fuse is blown, remove it from the fuse block and examine the fuse element for a break. If the element is broken, replace the fuse with one of equal current rating.

You will need to test for power on 2 terminals, ground when the horn pad is pushed and if you jumper power to the horn wire the horn should play. What doesn't work will determine what needs to be fixed. There are bulletins that deal with the air bag in the steering wheel as being a problem so if you don't get a ground when the horn pad is pushed then I would suggest taking it to the shop and have someone repair that part of it because serious injury can result if propper steps aren't taken to disable the SIR system before disassembly. Also some special tools might be needed depending upon how deep into the column you need to go.



Hope this help (remember rated this post).

have you checked the fuses and test the voltage on the head light plug to see if you lost a ground or power
