My R33's Horn Isn't Working....

[cjfb]

What are some common reasons for a horn to not be working? I'm no greasemonkey, but i'm sure that if some one were to suggest some possible reasons for it not to be working and where/what to check on my car, I could figure it out.

Thanks for any advice.

have you checked if its connecetd?

Get a police siren buzzer 100W is alright

200W will scare the shit out of any1 around ya

Erm... how do I check that exactly? Approximately where abouts is the horn unit under the bonnet? Behind the steering wheel?

Don't laugh.... This is my first car haha.

the horn is located near the front radiator, under the front bar

there's two round bell looking things, like your standard bicycle horn

they are connected to your steering wheel horn button

so just pop your bonnet and you'll be able to see them

is it a stock steering wheel or a after market sports one?

It's a stock steering wheel.

I might take that off and have a poke around, make sure everything is connected properly.

careful of the airbag if your considering taking it off. id check the conection under the hood first.

In fact now that I think about it it’s probably just a blown fuse. Only problem is that I don’t have an owner’s manual, so I don’t know which one to replace…

Does anyone happen to know of a link to a PDF R33 owner’s manual by any chance?

here's the under-dash fuse box translation. keep it. it'll come in handy

but i dont see any horn fuse. so maybe check under the bonnet in the engine bay relay/fuse box. its in english

has your r33 got a steering wheel airbag? if not, you can just pull the centre pad cover thing off by pulling it till it unclips. then check the horn wire is plugged in.

if you open your bonnet and look straight down in front of your radiator, you will see your horns mounted there, check those are plugged in too.
