hazmatic Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 my bro ask me to ask u guys if u kno how to fix a horn on a n-body (2001 grand am) it dnt honk at all im guessin a loose wire Quote
Brian P Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 Check the horn fuse first, then most likely it's in the steering wheel, but I dont know if he wants to mess with it since it's got the airbag Quote
gimp19 Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 Most chances are its a fuse, did anything else stop working with it? Quote
ismellrealbad Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 chances are he was in a horn war and now the horn stopped working. ive had that happen to me and other people too. Quote
gimp19 Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 The actual horn part under the hood? My old car and my moms van like to blow horn fuses constantly. Quote
Bolt_Crank Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 if it was a horn war.... you'll be lucky if it's the fuse, on my truck the horn itself burnt out... (sounded like a dying cat) Quote
gimp19 Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 Yeah, if it started making funny noises before it went its the actual horn unit under the hood. If it just stopped working it could be a fuse or loose wire start with the basic's and work your way up. Quote
hazmatic Posted May 20, 2003 Author Report Posted May 20, 2003 he got in a accident sometime back n frst it sounded like a clown horn but now it dont work at all n now he need a inspection sticka n they wont bass him cuz his horn dont work when he gets home ill check the fuses Quote
ismellrealbad Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 then the actual horn is broken. replace it Quote
Slade901 Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 You could always disconnect the horn wires under the hood and directly connect wires from the horn to the battery and see if it works. More likely the horn will work. It could be bad fuse, loose wire. I have similar issue with my horn which makes a sick horn when I use it. The fuse is fine, horn is fine (directly connected wire to the battery). I was reading about relays and I think it mentions that the horn is routed via a relay? My 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme mentions that there is a relay on the left passenger side under the close to the struts mounting bolts. I will try to check that area and see what happens. Quote
Bolt_Crank Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 if it's the relay, then it would either work, or not work, and sometimes work.... not make funny noises.... at least, it shouldn't o.O Quote
