TOYOTA Auris/Corolla 2011 Horn problem and fix (see description)

The problem was the Spiral Cable Clock Spring.
The cost was 350€ from TOYOTA.
I bought it for 8€ from AliExpress. My part nymber was 84306-0D070.

Who would have thought it? After 2 years of my horn working when it felt like it and not wanting to dismantle it because of the air bag, I tried this. It really did fix it. I can't see the logic here but the result is fantastic. Thanks for the easy tip!

Great way to diagnose the issue. Thanks, mate!

Apart from bashing it, what is the fix?

[davidsunday]

Fixed mine by shaking the horn button vertically with out turning the wheel. Problems comes back in a few weeks. Suspect the contacts inside get dirty and fast

Hi, can you send me the aliexpress link for the part? the link added in the comments above is no longer valid... Thank you in advance my friend. I have Toyota Auris 2010 and the same problem, my horn doesn't work

Other buttons were working or no? Have the same issue with the horn on my Toyota yaris and I don't know what is the problem.

Lol..what are u up to bro? Your clock spring needs replacement for permanent solution

[zurich]

So what was the problem? Mine's the same, and I don't want to do that every time I need the horn...

The world's most pathetic car horn. It's the one part of this otherwise fantastic little car that I never use.
