Hi guys

I've just imported a TX1 1998 car to Spain and I need some help.

The horn doesn't work! Any ideas where the horn is located under the bonnet? I can't see it anywhere. Does anyone know what the possible problem could be? Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards

Saj

Thanks Mr T.

I've put a wire direct from the battery and the horn works, checked the fuses and they seem ok, replaced the centre push part of the steering wheel and still nothing! Anymore ideas??

A bad wiring connection somewhere.

Hi Guys

Update! I finaly got the horn working.

I removed the steering wheel and noiced that the metal ring on the reverse of the steering wheel and the pushpin in the plastic wiper/indicator housing had both perished. I purchased a repair kit on Ebay for 15 quid and voila all sorted!! :D :D

I now have another issue - anyone know exactly where the chasssis number is stamped on a TX1? I'm not referring to the vin plate which i can see on the bonnet slam panel.

Thanks
