where`s me horn then?

Post by hogggman » Wed Mar 12, 2008 9:47 pm

hi,
just found out that my horn doesn`t work.i`ve checked the fuse,all is as it should be there.the only thing i can think of is that it`s just been converted,and maybe the chap accidentaly dislodged a wire when he was under the bonnet,sorting out the leisure battery.i have had a quick look,but can`t actually locate the hor.anyone tell me where it is please?it`s a 1998 v6 petrol.
thanks
jamie

my first bongo they were in front of the radiator behind the plastic grill, but on my new one there is one under each of the wheel arches at the front near the front bumper

Below the offside headlamp - I believe you need to remove headlamp to get at it.

If you have any luck, let me know. I found the relay, the horn and everything seems to work, except the Paaarp!!
I'm going to check the Airbag ring and hope that I don't blow my head off in the process.

hello again.
i still haven`t located my non-working horn.i guess it could be below the offside headlight,as this is below where the leisure battery has been fitted and i suppose the guy who did the conversion could feasibly have accidentally caught a connector and dislodged it.if the horn is there,should i be abler to see it from above,as i can`t?
thankyou
