Car Horn Sounds Weak: Reasons And How To Fix

Car Horn Sounds Weak: Reasons And How To Fix. In this video tutorial I will show you how to fix a car horn that sounds weak.

Here are the reasons and how to fix it:
Blown fuse
Car horns usually function electronically. A blown-out fuse will not transmit the required electrical current to power the horn. Here’s how to replace the fuse;
• Check your car's manual to find the fuse's location. Usually, the fuse box is on the panel inside your car or under the hood.
• Then, turn off the engine and disconnect the battery for safety purposes.
• Open the fuse box and using a fuse puller, pull the blown fuse out.
• Insert the new fuse and close the lid.
• Turn on your car to see if your horn sounds normal.

Faulty horn button or switch
Your car’s horn button or switch may wear out over time due to frequent use. This wear can weaken the horn's sound. You can fix it by getting your mechanic to replace the switch.

Faulty horn relay
A horn relay is responsible for sending the electric signals to the horn and activating it to blow. If this relay is not functioning properly, the horn will not be able to sound strong. The horn relay is located in the fuse box. Once located, remove and replace it.

The entire horn is damaged.
Your car horn may sound weak if the entire horn is damaged. The best way to fix this is to replace the horn. Here are the steps to follow;
• Locate your car’s horn. Turn off the engine and disconnect the battery for safety.
• Remove the horn by unscrewing it from the mounting bracket. Disconnect any wiring harness connected to it.
• Replace the new horn and reassemble everything back.
• Press the horn to see if it is functioning well.
