What passes for horns on my 95WRX have ceased functioning. Horns are OK if connected direct to the battery, fuses appear to be OK. Connectors in the Nardi steering wheel are OK (but no voltage on either). anyone come across the problem? The slip-ring on the steering wheel which presumably feeds the voltage to the horn button also has no volts present. Any ideas gratefully accepted.

Cheers

Dave

 

Could be an earthing problem, had a similar prob with my Momo onto my old MkII Golf a little while ago, the earth wasnt in contact with the wheel properly (Usually behind the copper plate), if you run a seperate earth to the chassis that may cure it, then you'll have to trace the wires into the wheel to find the problem, if thats what it is!

 

it will be the relay it's in the drivers footwell hidden quite well on the right hand side most relays i'v changed are red in colour and square i think but don't know if it's the same for yours but thats what it'll be

 

My relays are in the Fuse box (93WRX). Also, there is no earth on the Horn, its a closed circuit, I think.

p.s changing the horn was my first Mod

Thanks Guys

Guess I'll hunt the relay, any idea which one it is in the relay box on the nearside inner wing? I'm not very good at Japanese

Dan, what did you replace the feeble tweety things with?

it's not in the box under the bonnet trust me it's under the dash drivers side near the bottom of the a post usally close to 2 or 3 more round relays

 

This thread should help you if having problems with the horn.....

That explains it, I didn't think it had anything to do with relays

 

hi
having the same problem here, so as suggested i've looked for that relay
found another fuse box but not relays.
what do they look like? plastic or metal cover ?

thanks for the help, its so bad driving without it...

 

it's up a bit from the fuse box in the footwell bit of a pig to get at as well early cars were red plastic and square on a clip behind the bottom of the 'a' post it's there you just gotta look for it!

 

thanks scoobyboy
I'll look for it in the morning
now its a bit dark and my eyes are not sober

 

ok found it
on my MY95 uk turbo the relay is (perfectly) hiden right behind the fuse box, so if someone needs to chenge it you must 1st unscrue two nuts (top & botom) of the fuse panel and then u can unplug the relay which is red plastic box.

good luck to you all
and thank you for your help and assistance

regards
robert
