Horn

My horn suddenly seems to be only single tone - sure it used to be two tone?

Can someone confirm that I'm not going mad and it used to be a two tone horn Confused

Thanks

Mine was recently changed under warranty, and I hadn't even noticed it was faulty!
(I'm not that an aggressive driver) Laughing
They told me they'd done it during the last service Thumbs Up

One of my horns stopped working recently ...I checked the connections and all was well so aided by TFC, we performed intricate WD40 surgery Very Happy

...take off the offending unit ...fill the spiral with WD40 and quickly rotate the unit so that the WD goes further into the spiral ....give it a good shake and the rotate the other way it to expel the excess. Repeat if necessary

Didn't work straight away but it was fine once the unit was dry Thumbs Up
