MK1 Transit Connect Horn location photo

Postby wvm2020 » Sat Apr 04, 2020 6:56 pm

Hello, I have just purchased a 2005 Transit connect, the horn does not work, fuse was blown so replaced it. Still didn't work. Swapped a relay and still didn't work. Does anyone have a photo of where horn is located?
I have ordered a Haynes manual but due to Corona it wont be here for a while.
Just behind radiator I can see a bracket with nothing attached and no wiring but there is a broken plastic clip on it. Must of had a horn for the M.o.t.
Just trying to use this lockdown to get things done. There a few things I need to do to it.
Thanks in advance and hope you are all keeping well.

Taken from my Haynes manual (there is a picture but it's not that helpful).

1. The horn is located at the front left-hand side of the vehicle on the chassis leg. Raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on axle stands.

2. Release the fasteners and remove the quarter panel from the rear of the bumper. Alternatively remove the left-hand road wheel and release the front edge of the wing liner to access the horn.

3. Disconnect the horn wiring plug, undo the mounting bolt and remove the horn from the vehicle.

4. Refit in the reverse order of removal.

So based on the above, the wiring plug might be loose and just needs pushed on properly. Still sounds like quite a faff to get to it though.

2008 Connect Mk1 75bhp, EGR Delete, remapped to 100bhp (still in the family)
