car horn
hey guys. this is weird. i have a momo steering wheel so the horn is all tempermental. i took it apart and made sure all the connections were right, but now the horn only works when i turn the steering wheel right. if its in the middle the horn makes a tiny beep noise you can barely hear, and if its turned to the left i get nothing at all. help please! i've been driving with no mot for ages!

Re: car horn
sounds like a dodgey connection to me mate
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts
Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

Re: car horn
Ensure that the copper springy thing at the back of the hub is making a firm connection and has plenty of copper crease on it, that the horn push itself has one wire connected to the spade connector and the springy thing at the side is firmly touching the bare metal of the hub and that there aren't any wires bridging the gap and creating a short circuit.green_machine wrote:no cables being twisted, all connections seem okay. any other ideas?
It could even be a dodgy horn push, or hub.

Re: car horn
This may not be your cause of fault but i thought id tell as it may help others...
I had a horn that was not working and then sometimes it would but sounded poorly lol
it turned out to be the horn itself touching something behind my bumper so it was earthing out...
WORKS FINE NOW
