Felicia 2000, horn working intermittently

Featured Replies

Hi all!

 

I'm new to the forum so I hope I'm posting in the right section. My horn, Felicia 1.3 LXi year 2000, only works for a brief second and then it dies, after a few days it might work once again for a brief second and then die again. I've been searching for a wiring diagram for the horn but haven't found one. If anyone has it I would very much appreciate a link or a picture.

 

Thanks!

You would probably better looking at or posting on the 'Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda Forman' forum. - https://www.briskoda.net/forums/forum/90-skoda-favorit-skoda-felicia-skoda-fun-and-skoda-forman/

 

If the car and horn(s) have not been used a lot and/or for a long time checking all the electrical connections are clean, secure and protected may be a first step.  Starts at the horn(s) connects make be the easiest route but it depends on where they are located and how they are fixed to the car.

 

A couple of quick ideas, -

 

You could test the horn(s) by disconnecting from car wiring and making live and earth connections directly from 12v battery to horn(s) and if done a few times on and off this may "clear the throat" of the horn(s) if the car and/or horn(s) are not used a lot or for a long time.  Be aware that there can be a fair bit of power and sparks perhaps and of course sudden loud noise possibly.  All done at your own responsibility of course. 

 

If you can get someone to press the horn(s) button whilst you take a voltage reading at the horn(s) this might tell you if full electric power is getting through to the horn or end of the horn wire connections.

 

 

I am not a big fan of Haynes manuals and have no idea what is included in the Felicia 1996-2000 (UK) version but all data bases have error and omissions including in my limited experience factory workshop manuals.  I also have no idea what, if any, other languages this is/was published in paper or digital. - https://haynes.com/en-gb/skoda/felicia/1995-2000-13-petrol-304858
