My horn is not working, I know wiring is correct and when I push horn button I get a click but no noise. Is their a simple fix? Or do you have a recommendation on someone who rebuilds them. I checked old forums and there was a reference to someone in Rome, NY but the posting was over 5 years ago. Do you have a current contact?

Thanks

There should be a small screw on the back of the horn for adjustment. Try turning the screw to see if it activates the horn.

If you get a click that indicates that you have power to the horn and that the electromagnet is energized. As the Dog advised try turning the slotted screw with jam nut. That should get the horn to work. If not then you can send to me or a few other guys to see if it can be repaired.

I replaced the inner parts of my horn with a 6 volt motorcycle horn. Had to do some adapting to make it fit, but works fine.
