Title: cant get the horn..................... to work :)
Post by: landroverkeith on June 16, 2011, 18:11:42

Had a odd fault with the disco now for a while not sure how to even start fault finding properly

neither of the horns work via the steering wheel but if i direct connect them to power they work fine?
not sure if its connected but also the hazard lights have stopped working ive tried a new switch and it makes no differance
the fuse in the bonnet is fine not blown etc im trying to source a new flasher relay on the hope this will solve that

any ideas please?

Mot is due mid july eek

Sounds like the centre electrical coupler in the steering wheel is pooched... I cant for the life of me remember what its called though... They are about 50quid on ebay when they come up....

I think its possibly that..easiest way to check is remove the cowl and jump the connections... THOUGH STAY AWAY FROM THE YELLOW LEADS AS IT THE AIRBAG!!!
