Horn's gone weak!

Any tips? Horn seems to be half the noise it usually is. Why? Is it simple to sort out? Could I do it (please bear in mind I'm not the most techie minded, however I know a man who might be able.)? Or is it a trip to Stealers?...... However don't want them to muck up TFC's tweak to the alarm using horn.

Any help appreciated. Thanks. If at first you don't succeed.... destroy all evidence that you tried in the first place!!

As far as i am aware you should have two horns fitted ( Low and High tone), sometimes they stop working if water ingress occurrs or even a loose wire maybe Whistle
yeah should be twin tone on yours. Take the grill out and itll be the horn behind there thats gone duff. Warranty item and they should fit a grill of sorts to the new horn to protect it from the elements!!! Steve

Thanks. Have got it booked in for its first MOT (have asked for it to be very thorough!) later this month just before warrenty runs out. Will get it sorted then. If at first you don't succeed.... destroy all evidence that you tried in the first place!!

Even tho' it's going for an MOT i dont think the inspector will check to see if both horns work as long as it makes some sort of noise then it should satisfy him/her.I would check it yourself as it is an easy job Thumbs Up Steve

I'd be interested in that as mine. My horn's gone squeaky as well.
cheers

One of mine horns packed up, took it in to dealers to be fixed, and they did, under extended warranty!
