Horn broken, watch for finger

I was using my horn today on my drive back from the coast and the damn thing stopped working. I'll be checking the fuse tomorrow and then taking it to the dealership. I don't care if it's just a fuse, I'll have them replace it as per the warranty and then find out why the hell it just stopped working.

LOL!! Love the title! We just put the PIAA dual horn kit in Mark's Yaris and it sounds sweet! Very Euro. Probably no louder then the stocker, but more fuller tone, sounds like you just cut off a car that can get out of its own way!!

Check the connection at the horn as well.

Nah, I'm not going to get that far into it. I bought a brand new car with a warranty for a reason. I do know how to work on cars and do just about anything to them. The '91 Golf II that I had in Germany taught me a lot about fixing vehicles. Either which way, it's going to the dealership tomorrow morning.

I honk at people and I don't think they hear anything. I want one of those PIAA horns myself maybe throw in a little extra something on top of that.

Well they've ordered me a new horn and a new cat. They said they're going to wait on getting a new O2 sensor because they feel that it's not going to be needed. Hopefully I won't have to say "I told you so".

I really hate strangers to work on my car if I can do-it-myself. If it is just a $1 fuse, I proly will just replace. Besides taking the car to dealer and waiting there is really not worth it.

Wish you luck at dealer.

my friends horn is sick

His dad got him the air tank/compressor, and the horn from one of the large trains.

This thing is rediculously loud. You hear it from sooooo far away, and from up close, it makes you shake.
