Default Horn won't blow

Horn won't blow, if I fiddle with the buttons enough, it will. I suspect dirty contacts.
How do you clean them????

First check you have power at connector. If so scrape and clean the round swaged electric connection on the horn. Solder between the two. That press connection has eroded and lost continuity. I have fixed several issues like this.

You don't need no stinking horn, they hear and smell you at WOT and get out of the way!

Of course, if you can't get the horn working but still want one, there is always this alternative.....Bob
