He, finally got the idle running right and the brake lights working (someone installed a switch for towing and that was what was causing the problem). After purchasing, registering and getting the above problems fixed I have put out enough that I am looking for some small cheap projects for a while.

The Horn doesn't work. I have checked the fuses, any suggestions on where to go next?

Make sure the ground wire is still attached to the horn plate. Also, the horn only works when the key is turned on. I thought my horn didn't work before I realized this...

I was told to tap it with a rubber mallet, sometimes just dirt gets into things due to its location I guess. Also there is a screw, I believe for volume, that turning it sometimes helps. Like the above posts, check the connections and shine them up.
