I give Up! Where is the horn!

[Fat Albert]

I have looked and stared and searched, I have opened my Haynes Manual, which shows a lovely picture, but doesn't show where on earth the Horn(s) are located on a 951?

anyone have a scooby where they are please?

My horn stopped working just after my MoT, I can hear the relay clicking so it is not the steering wheel contact as I initially suspected.

Why the sudden need? I went to Bedford this morning and on the same roundabout in Huntingdon going in each direction I was over-taken and cut-up by cr@ppy hatchbacks, on both occasions I was in a stream of traffic and couldn't go any faster or do anything, but I am in a red(ish) Porker so must be easy meat.....anyway, putting on the windscreen wipers does not have the same effect....

IIRC it's on pasenger's side front but you'll need to get under the car to be able to see it. I happen to have my bonnet up now and I can't see it from the top and can't get under to confirm without jacking the car up... damn thing is so low..lol

I have a Scooby, and ironically I recently replaced the "meep"-er OEM horn on it for a louder/deeper "parp"-er made by Stebel.

But that probably isn't important just now. [&:]

Pete right - passenger side low down under pretty much everything. Not sure if you need to remove under tray as mine doesn't have one.

There should be 2 horn units, only 1 of mine works - another little job!

Thanks guys, I did have a look underneath but couldn't see it, so will have to get it up on the axle stands.

I did measure my front ARB while I was there (27mm) so at least I know what bushes to order now....

I used to have a Scooby and agree with the horn sentiment!

The deep tone on my Turbo has packed up so I have a rather comedy pathetic peep peep at the moment

Its just in front of the nearside wheel, inside the arch and above the undertray so you can't normally see it

I lost my horn when i turned the telly on and saw Dot Cotton...oooh handbags!

I've binned my standards for some Stebel triple air horns which i managed to fit into the original space and using the original wires, no extensions. Great for beeping at pedestrians that play chicken and muppets. BTW don't mount the compressor upside down to the piccy on the box or it won't work.

replace with THIS Paul [8D]

They come as high & low tone versions (the above being the low tone).

You can hear them on the Stebel Website ~ unfortunately you can't link to sections of the site directly .... once past the intentional-but-painfully-slow home page choose Electromagnetics > TM80 Magnum and click on the big 'orn symbol.

Apologies to all sane readers for posting links to horn sounds. []

The tone frequency on the air horns always seem too high to me.... although your other comments reminded me of this extreme immaturity. Although it still makes me chuckle.... [&:]

You beat me to it [] Never has the idea of a roof rack on the 944 been so tempting!
