if i replace them will it be the same, could it be a current strength thing or just they are knacked?

I had this with mine.

Took it out, cleaned it up, fiddled with itand got it to work . There's a central bolt or nut (IIRC with a locking ring of sorts) that can be adjusted and this can make a difference.


I seem to remember the low and high note horns are marked L& H (cast into the alloy? casing)

Good luck. Cheers

Triple air horns it is then :shock:but IIRC,it was the twiddling the central nut / bolt that made mine work, if you still wanted to try.

If they don't work you will have to stick your head out of the car and shout "PARP" very loudly.

I'm sure no one will notice :P

Hi, MC, Feed a relay from the horn circuit (should be in the kit ). direct feed the airhorns from the battery through a fuse to the relay and blow all together, old and air horns.
