Horn issues
I installed the horn I got today and when I press the button I get one very short sound, so the ground is working. I took the cover off and it is all clean, no rust.  I can’t see the diaphragm under the cover but it looks ok down the bell.  Is there an adjustment that I need to do?

Re: Horn issues

Re: Horn issues
But battery horns should not! This battery horn most likely responded to adjustment of the weight on the cross spring.
