My horn seems to be doing some irratic things lately and i am wondering if it has to do with either heat or low battery voltage.

I drive it short distances where the truck never really gets hot where the fan needs to run during this time and it sounds fine.

If i drive 30 miles in traffic, fan has been on and off voltage gauge has dropped down some and the whole truck is just really warm. The horn is so quiet and sounds like it died. or there is a really low voltage on the battery. funny thing is it will sit there for several hours and start just fine, so the voltage cant be that low....

So whats up with this? Is it heat related? Or voltage related?

 

Its your trucks way of telling you you need to get train horns

 

haha i wish. i would so rig that into the lock feature...

 

lol that would be sweet

 

do it!!! u kno u wana

 

just paypal me the money and ill do it! lol

 

im guessing just some mud and water in it, my horn did the same for a few months then it quit

 

maybe its a bad ground, or a weak one and is hit/skip

 

Use your finger instead!!

 

mine does the same thing. It'll randomly just not want to honk when i hit the lock button, then hit the panic button and all it does is flash the lights. I'll come back later and everything is normal.

One problem I've recently encountered is on my right turn signal, i'l click it on, it'll click for 2 clicks than make a long click, the buld won't show on the instrument panel. I'll click it off and back on and it works fine.

 

user error.

naw um mine sounds like a dying rat very faint. there was mud and diert all overt the wires so i cleaned my engine and it works fine now

 

yeah mine just might have a bunch of crap in it.

 

In my 01 after I went hunting and had to get through some deep mud it sounded like a donkey. I swear if you hit the panic button it would have two different tones and it would sound like "HEE-HAW" It was amusing to me so I never fixed it.

Thanks Biz. I picked it up on the cheap a few years ago as a project/fun car. I keep it around for the occasional high-rev driving session.
