Strange Horn Behaviour
#1
On my 2011 1.6 Hdi the horn is acting weirdly.

It stopped working over a year ago and then suddenly started working again once the van was put up on a lift.

All was good until last week when it was put on the lift again and stopped.

Sounds like a loose connection somewhere, any ideas ?

Many thanks
Michael

I think there were a few posts on the steering column earth. Maybe worth a search.

Mechanic put van up on lift and reached up into where the horn was situated, Contrary to the Hayes manual no removing of front bumper or wheel liners were necessary. was a loose connection, fixed in 5 mins Smile

I'm having the same issues on mine.
I'd like to have a word with 'your mechanic' as he  is clearly full of shite
The vehicle is built around the horn.

Hi Ev, is yours a B9 and facelift by any chance?

Mine is and I got to the horn by taking the passenger fake fog light cover off, it's right there in front of you with that removed. I'm about to fit blasters of some kind as the fkin horn is like postman pat - toot toot - no fecking use when some 75 year old in a vauxhall pulls out in front of you when you are passing them on a busy city centre road (happened the other day, twice) and they need a bloody good parping to wake them up. I hit the "horn" and the old duffer never even heard the bloody thing.

No, it's the 2008-12 type
Sadly the engine bay is 100 percent enclosed with hectares of plastic and metal panelling.
In any case ( they call me Edward Shovelhands at work) I couldn't get my paws through there...

Lol @ Edward Shovelhands, love it. Ah well that's a shame mate. 

Great choice of Av btw. I'm a megafan of both BB and Saul, and El Camino, what an epic film. I've watched them all 8 times, no kidding. The missus is the same.

As someone who remembers Derek & Clive I still find this thread title somewhat risqué LOL ?
