horn

There are 2 horns, both now defective located behind front grills . I have located them and unscrewed off the brackets. The electrical connectors are corroded , especially one and i am unsure how they are connected,especially one as it is almost flat. I don`t think they were screwed in and they...

My horn is weak and feeble...! No jokes please... So the W124 horn sounds a bit rubbish and wheezy. Do they age badly and need replacing? It definitely needs remedial action to come back to spec. The W126 had an optional two tone "town & country" horn I believe. Would one of those fit? Thanks...

Hi, I have some issues with my W211, the horn and function buttons on the airbag are not working, after I changed a deployed airbag to a second hand one from ebay, I checked all the fuses I opened the airbag few times to see that the connectors are in place properly and I even opened the...

This post in the Unbelievable thread reminded me of an incident when I was in my late teens. My mate Steve's dad, Ron, was teaching his wife Pat to drive. Steve and I were cadging a lift to the pub and so were sat in the back of the car, a Rover 2000, and it was a lovely summer Saturday...

Hi Everyone, my horn has stopped working, checked the basics, fuse traced to the fuse box in the engine bay. Not blown. checked for voltage at the horn when steering wheel pressed. no voltage present. Removed the Airbag assy from the Steering wheel, looks a bit complicated behind there...

I have just bought a 320 CDi avantgarde as my daily driver. I'm delighted with the car and to be back in a Mercedes on a daily basis, however, I'm not at all sure about the horn - it sounds a bit weedy. A sort of low tone 'peep' is the best I can describe it as. Is this just how it is or is...

Hi. Just inherited a 500SL, 1989. I'm trying to prepare it for winter storage and waiting for a gap in the weather before valeting, drying out then covering up. Battery was nearly flat after storage, and the horn started going off…. and wouldn't stop all the time battery was connected...

Guys, I posted a problem with my electrics last week, I had lots of flashing dashboard lights ESP Fault, engine running on etc. The horn also started and won't turn off, this is all without the key in.! I pulled the natural off the batt and reset the system, i then drove about 150 miles...

Hi Guys, Had a nightmare today, cut along story short I was at work in London and got a call from the wife saying the car horn was blowing and she couldn't turn it off. When I arrived home 2 hours later with the neighbours going crazy i put the key in the ignition and found the car showing...

I'd like the horn contacts/airbag holder from a standard airbag type steering wheel. Must have insultated contacts. Andy

My 2005 CLS has a weedy hooter for a car of this size and type. Is there a suitable alternative that is louder and stronger and can just be fitted easily without any relay issues.

I got my first Merc, a 2008 E220CDi Avantgarde a few months ago. I tried the horn for the first time the other day and was surprised that it is only a single high tone which doesn't really suit the car at all. Is it supposed to have a low tone horn as well? Thanks

Hoping somebody can assist, '98 W202. I've two problems, I think? Originally, my first problem was the n/s main beam would not work at all and the o/s would not flash and no main beam dash warning light. So, I found a fuse gone, No.34. (7.5amp) which is for the n/s main beam & dash warning...

My 210 had its MOT today and failed as the horn didn't work - it is so rare that I use it that I hadn't noticed, no real excuse though. I tested the old one (a single one) which was not functioning - using a car battery - so ordered a replacement from ECP using the car reg, which showed it...

Howdy, I have a 1996 C230K with the dual horn, this worked for about a month into my ownership and has since decided that I only require the higher pitched noise, which is embarrassing too say the least and I also fear that it will affect the MOT. I have searched the forums to no avail really...

Hi The car is E300TD 1998. Had this problem for a while. My horn quite often does not work. "Hummering" it etc does not work. But what always resolves it is switching ignition off then on. So the actual horns are OK, so is clockwork spring as it is hard to imagine how switching ignition off...

hi guys the horn has topped working recently on my Vito traveliner. i have checked for a continuity signal on the stearing wheel contacts and also metered the terminals for the horn end. the steering wheel contacts have continuity but at the horn end i get not volts or continuity...
