I know the horn relay is located on the convenience center on the passenger side. I am just having trouble finding it. How do I get to it?

It is inside the convenience center not on it. You need to remove the convenience center and then you can open it to replace the relay.

Remove the bolt that holds it to the dash and rotate it, you should see clips on the cover. Release them and the relay is inside. On others you just spin it around and the relay will be the 3 terminal one.

That’s the thing I can’t even locate the piece. Do I have to take anything off to get to it?
