Horn question

[jstrut]

This is my first post so sorry if I'm not in the right area but here goes. I just bought a 2000 XLT and I noticed the horn is not working. Every time I press the horn I get a clicking sound from under the passenger side dash but thats it. Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Cant recall exactly where... but believe horn is behind grill on the lower passenger side.

Find horn check grounding and connector. If they look good you can test for voltage as someone presses the horn.

I checked the connectors and cleaned that out. I haven't checked the voltage yet but still just getting a click sound from inside under the dash. Can't hear it outside.

there is a adjuster screw on most horns it could be out of adjustment

unplug the horn. just two connectors. both positive and the horn is grounded to the frame. its easy to check. i have a different high pitch horn attached to mine.

The horn itself is actually just bad so I'm going to replace it. Anybody have any descent horns thats are a reasonable price?

Yeah I'm thinking something along the lines of a fog horn. I think that would do the trick.

I had a 96 Geo Metro and I tell you what, maybe I was lucky but I could scare the piss out of people with them and they were factory. I know because I bought it new.

Thats awesome! Imagine how you would feel after getting scared to realize it was a metro.
