Bongo Fury

Nice simple question for everyone!

The horn on the Bongo has stopped working, but as the body shop have been rummaging around under the bonnet, I suspect a wire has come off. I want to try and trace it back, but where from? I can't find anything that looks remotely like a horn under the bonnet ................. but then again, I have no idea what one looks like, having never had to find one before

Under the offside headlight behind the bumper. Some have one each side

its one of those thing that doesn't look like its name.

66-790 and 66-780a if the vehicle is fitted with hi/low horns, if you need new horns (they often rust away)they are very reasonably priced on Ebay.
Good Luck.

Brilliant, thank you so much. Ironically, I rarely use it as I am one of those laid back patient folk, but I know it was working before the body shop got in there and started undoing stuff.

As the Bongo returned from surgery with the washer bottle not screwed back on, and the grille not properly attached as well as a few other "snagging items", I suspect a clumsy apprentice is to blame (the apprentice who has now, apparently, been fired!!!!).

On my early (1998) V6 they are under the big air scoop in front of the radiator ..

I always marvel at the cleanliness of your Bongo when you post pictures Mike

Found it, where Rita said. Need to lie on the floor and look upwards - mine's also early 1998, Mike, but it's a diesel so just have one horn, almost inaccessible to those with normal hands and fingers.

Have checked fuse, have checked relay (which makes a noise) and have checked wires to a surprisingly clean and newish looking horn (although having had the Bongo for seven years, it can't be that new ...... the dirt obviously doesn't get that far! Not looking forward to trying to replace it, as it still doesn't work.

That under-the-bonnet shot puts mine to shame ...... it's grim under there. Leaves, pine needles, dead stuff, cobwebs. To think, the body shop were in there with all their silver paint. The painty bits look fab. I really must make more effort

I just have to get in here with the obvious answer before Bob does.... It's on the steering wheel

Shall I go in search of Bob's coat

I gifted my V6 Bongo to my grandson .. he popped down from County Durham last week in it .. a 400+ round trip .. he (and his two brothers love it)

He posted a Facebook picture last night with the three of them .. bacon for butties cooking on the stove ..!!

Couple of under bonnet pics of my Alphard V6..(I hope I don't get thrown off BF now as the lads want me to go to some Bongo meets with them in the summer ) ..!!

cmm303, I am amazed that yours wasn't the first reply on the post. By all means get Bob's coat, and pick yours up at the same time!!!

I've never had need to look at the Bongo's horn before but I've had this issue on other cars and have just cut the cable where I can get to it and install a new horn there, rather than try and get to the original location. Might that he a possibility?
