Can someone point me to the location of the horn relay trigger wire for 2003 silverado?

I added a secondary horn with a relay and tapped into the green wire at the existing horn to trigger the relay, problem is that when you lock the via keyless remote twice you don't hear the horn at all. I assume it is because I am going through 2 relays and the circuit is not live long enough to trigger both relays.

Thin black at steering column or BCM. https://www.autozone.com/repairinfo/repairguide/repairGuideContent.jsp?pageId=0996b43f8025edab

Thanks, I didn't make it very clear, but I was hoping to find it under the hood so I don't have to run a wire through firewall.

Well then, at the fuse box under the hood. Connector C1, position C3, might even have the two thin black wires as the schematic shows. Should be able to determine the pinout of the horn relay in the fusebox with a multimeter, then continuity of that terminal to the underside of the fusebox. Or just probe the terminals with a thin black wire(s) that show 12 volts that then go to ground with the horn operated.

I swung the fuse box up and probed under relay and fuse and got totally confused seems like the wire directly beneath the fuse and relay are not actually connected to the fuse and relay. Is that even possible?
