Horn
My horn sounds like it has a bad cold. When I hold it down it goes from low pitch to normal and back and forth. Should I just replace the whole horn assembly or is there something else that is wrong?Thanks. 1998 Honda Accord, 2.3 litre, VTEC

RE: Horn
The horn is grounded thru its own mounting bracket. Try cleaning that up in case its corroded or loose or ??
Then try a jumper wire directly from the battery. If its still anemic, then you need a new horn. I guess thats the most likely thing.
If the horn works GOOD with that jumper, then theres no sense in buying a new horn.You have to chase down some loose or dirty connections SOMEWHERE in the circuit, fuse, or relay. I dont have my 98 circuit drawings any more, so you might need to get your hands on a repair manual.
