does your horn work???

if neither work then its just the fuse needs replacing,

same thing happened to mine.

 

Sorted!!! Thanks alot for that ,now when i press the horn the fuse blows everytime!!!! oh well just can beep, will have to shout for now

 

all i done to mine was located the horn at the front of the motor and disconnected the connectors gave all the points a clean and then refitted them and put some insulating tape round the connectors,(it gets well wet so needs keeping dry),put a slightly bigger fuse back in and not had a prob since.

hope you get it sorted i got p*ssed of with shouting out the window so got it sorted.

nice1.

 

Cheers fella!!!!
Will have a look tommorow and try and sort it!

 

Can I enquire how much 'slightly bigger' is??

 

not sure ru,

i think that the one that was in there before was a 10 so i put a 15 in mine and not had any probs been over a year now.

 

I had the same prob when I bought mine, drove 250miles from Manchester with no brake lights at night in the pissing rain. 15A fuse. Sorted.

 

just found out mine dont work, dunno how long they not worked for, but horn aint workded for a while, sheeet, am checkin fuse

 

was fuse all works now

 

i have this problem . so i used the search and found this . but i have checked the fuses and they all seem to be ok but i cannot tell which fuse is for what its all in japanesse help please

 

bttt

 

Check again mate... its gotta be a fuse... fingers crossed for ya...

 

will do but i know they aint blown cheers anyway let you know how i get on .

 

Isn't enough that they "seem" I'm afraid... they can be blown but still appear fine. Go to maplin and get a £3 multimeter and test continuity of each fuse.

 

Fetch it round and i'll check them...

 

cheers

 

all fuse checked and confirmed by scoobyslammed so i am still

 

more and likely the brake light switch on the pedal it has 2 wires going to it. unplug it and join a piece of wire in between if they come on its the switch that is faulty .

do not put higher amperage fuses in thats what causes fires , if the fuse blows when the horn is pressed the horn is taking 2 much current or the wiring is touching on the body somwhere, 99% the horn change it or go up insmoke when it gets worse , unless your lucky

the fuse blows for a reason , i've seen too many cars go up in smoke or burnt from peolpe sticking in higher amperage fuses , if the fuse dont blow the wiring melts .

 

still not working . time for the auto electrician

 

disconnect the horn from the circuit and see if the fuse still blows. horns going south is quite a common prob on alot of cars, they are always mounted where they get **** wet through and covered in mud.

 

The offside brake light on my classic has stopped working.
It's not a blown bulb as I swapped it with the rear fog light bulb which is exactly the same and it still didn't work.
I guess it can't be the fuse as both brake lights would have stopped working.
Could it be the brake pedal switch or should I be looking elsewhere? Any advice appreciated.
