Fuse for Horn keeps blowing...
« on: 10 September 2008, 20:04:50 »

Just replaced the fuse again, horn worked for 2 plips, then it blew again.

Anything else running on this circuit or is the horn the only thing off the fuse?

Suppose its worthwhile just changing the horn over if thats the case and trying that yeah?

Do both horns work? I've just had this with my Astra, but only one was working. I disconnected the horn that didn't work & the fuse stopped blowing. A new 500Hz horn was a little over £20 fro a new one.

Had the same on the saloon - faulty horn(s).  Try markey mark on here for replacement horns - cured mine.
