Has anyone had problem with the Horn?
I have only one 'tone' on the horn when normally it should be '2 tone'. Suddenly developed! Any suggestions? Joe 'El pepe flamenco' JLS 'El Pepe Flamenco' |

there are 2 "bell" one on the left headlamp and one on the left (you can see the little grill under the position light).
check the "bell" that doesn't work and check the wiring loom, connector...... removing the headlamp.... Discovery 5 td6 HSE Stornoway Gray Outback Engineering Limited Edition

No Luck!
Have checked the Horn on the left (LHD vehicle) - no sound coming out. I think it may be the Horn itself or the wiring, although the connector and earth seem OK. Joe JLS 'El Pepe Flamenco' |

Don't want to teach anyone to 'suck eggs'......Swap the two horns over....easiest way to determine whether it's wiring or the horn itself.

Or put a 5W 12V bulb on the connector (car side) and try to "beeeep"................. Discovery 5 td6 HSE Stornoway Gray Outback Engineering Limited Edition

Or your tongue, dick, finger or any other appendage you can get to fit, however in these instances you will of course need a second person to go 'beep flippin' beep!'  If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

jlerra did you have any luck with this? I seem to have the same problem but haven't worked out which side it's not coming out of.

Hi,
Yes I fixed it - it was the 'high' tone horn, identified by exchanging the working horn for the suspect one. Bought one and replaced and fine again. jlerra El pepe flamenco JLS 'El Pepe Flamenco' |
