Check the relay in the power distribution box to see if the relay is at fault. Test the resistance across the opposite terminals with a multimeter.

Relay wire colors (according to my Haynes manual):
Black - coil; connects to ground
Yellow - coil; connects to the switch (12V with the switch On)
Blue/black - connects to the fuse (20A, also fuses the horn)
Tan/orange - connects to the light assemblies

I have a picture of which one it is at home, so I cannot show you where it is yet....
