Fix a horn
One of my horns doesnt work. Hooked it to 12v and ground and it made a small squeak and then nothing. The second horn seems to work fine.
Are they different tones in each horn? Is it possible to fix a horn? A new one is only $20 but im sure its a cheap POS and Im in a slow time on my truck anyway ![]() |

Re: Fix a horn
Squirt some wd40 in it. I've brought a few back to life this way

Re: Fix a horn
X2 on the WD40. And yes, two tones, one high & one low.

Re: Fix a horn
hmm they look the same. any way to tell which is which? I already took them off and have no idea which was where.
judging by the whimpy sound id say the high tone works but im not sure. ill try the wd-40 on the broken one. note to others, dont sand blast the horn. Im still shaking this dang thing to get the media out... doh! |
