There's no connection between horn and door switch (except maybe while river crossing too deep
![]() It's also normal that the door locking stops working without notice when the wires break; I had this last year, wire was broken with insulation still half intact. I'd also advise to unplug the connector in the B pillar as soon you notice any problems. Worst thing would be both wires cracked making a short and frying the ALM module's output (no fuses). |

UPDATE: - Fixed. The door wires had completely severed - so I've fixed those. Strangely, I also stripped down the o/s from headlight surround to get at the horn which was not showing and signs of any issues, so I left that alone. But on completing the door job ...the horn started working on full power again.
So I'm guessing that the two bare wires to the door might have been touching at the B pillar end - and the this somehow caused some ampage leak. Not sure, but all is well again. ![]() |
