Retarded horn

So I got my truck back from the body shop a week ago after a girl pulled out in front of me and destroyed my truck. WELL, everything looks good mostly.... But I just honked my horn and.. I died laughing. Any ideas how to fix it?

Sounds like water or debris got inside the horn . The only suggestion is to replace it , if the horn was fine prior to the body shop visit I would go back to that shop and ask about it

 

Lol. I don't even have a horn

 

take the horn out and check it, it might be full of water if wet sanding for painting was done, or something as simple as a bee nest blocking the opening

 

Well, I swapped the horns and one of them doesn't work at all anymore. The other one is very raspy

 

How do you pass safety?

 

Nice I use my horn too much to not have one. It's a must have with these scary ass Tampa drivers

 

It's a must in texas to pass inspection

 

the last two times my truck was inspected all they asked me to do was to turn on the lights, turning signals and wipers, didn't check the horn, or say anything about the headlights that were tinted nor the too dark (Arizona )tint on the truck.

 

That shop don't give a fuck then. I hope no one gets hurt cuz they aren't taking the inspection seriously.

 

That's just weird to me. We don't have inspections in Florida.

 

Most of the free world doesn't.

 

At least it's not the "meep meep" from my old 98.

 

It sounds like a horn from a 30's ford lol

My old Chevy had the horn mounted in a way that it would fill with water and sound kinda like yours.
I gave it a 180 mounting position and all was fine. The body shop likely had the horn off when they fixed the front end and mounted it wrong maybe?

 

Turns out the horn doesn't work at all.

 

possibly not but they are right in the middle of a prominent neighborhood and have been there for over 35+years just was something that I noticed when they did my inspection last time

 

replace it with an oem one, the aftermarkets just aren't as rock solid or as well made as original in my book.

check the for sale section here, you will find a good oem stock horn to replace it with.

I know my 04 sounds like a regular truck horn and I think all the 01-04's had those but anything before 01 I think will be the meep meep horn and you definitely don't want those lol

 

All correct. +4 bonus points.
