I got my car back finally....after a week my baby is back home. I was driving today and was using the horn to get some ones attention. It worked fine for a few beeps. I left my car a few hours and came back...i took off and tried to use the horn. Now it makes a click sound behind the gauge cluster. I cant seem to get it back working. Anyone know whats up?

I think the clicking is just the relay under the dash... you usually don't hear it because the horn sounds.

Check the connection at the horn.

I know this is a dumb question, but where is the horn itself located?

i think thats your problem right there...should be behind your front grill

HighLife

Ok im taking it that the little round piece right behind the front upper grill is the horn. It looks connected. I jiggled the wires a bit just to make sure. Could it be the horn itself?

Dam i have to remove my whole bumper to get to the horn dont I?

just jack the front of the car up.. U should be able to get to it from under the car

You will have to remove the trim under the front bumper. You should buy a test light with a long probe and get someone to hit the horn button while you hold the test light at the horn. If it lights up at the connector that plugs into the horn you gotta bad horn. If not, you got wiring or fuse problems.

Thanks...i was thinking about the fuse...we check that first. Is the horn on its own fuse or does it share it with something else? Im asking cause if it does share something, then i could test to see if that something was working. Help me track down my problem. I wouldnt care, but a horn is very useful in florida....since we use it more then any other state, besides NYC.

its the horn it self, i just had the same problem, just go to the junk yard and get any honda horn and slice it in and mount it up.
you will neeed to remove the front bumper. or upgrade to a hella horn.

I went to Pepboys and bought one for 13$. Its funny too, its deeper tone then the stock...kinda sounds like a euro style horn. Its awesome..hehhehe
