So i picked up a 1996 celica to flip about 2 years ago, and someone ended up stealing the convertible top while it was in the auction lot.
![]() So it sat around for a while, upuntil about 3 months ago I got a parts car with a good top and swapped it on. The car had alot of issues and im down to one of the final ones, the horn. In Virginia a horn is mandatory for state inspection, which is the last thing i need before I can sell it. Here is a video of my sistuation with the horn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVBFE6prMQg If my accent was to heavy to understand, this is the written version: I have replaced the fuse and the relay and still nothing. I do hear a little click from the relay when pressing on the horn. I looked around trying to find the horn, and I kind of found 2 horn looking things. On the parts car there was a horn on the top passenger side by the radiator, with just one wire, replaced that on my project car, and still nothing. While looking around, I saw something else that looked like a horn, on the driver lower side mounted on by a 12mm bolt. This one had two wires. Grabbed it from the parts car and plugged it up. I took both the original and tried to just hook them straight to the battery, all I got from that was just a spark from the terminals where I put the wires next too. Isnt this a way to test the horn? I would appreciate any help guys!! |

If the horn is good and making solid contact then there will be Sparks when you short the power wire going to the horn, to the chassis. Safer way Is with a multimeter lol |
