Most likely time for a new horn. But first check in the PDC by the battery. The lid will tell you which relay is the horn. Swap it with one of the others and see if it sounds better. If that works then swap it back and get a new one. If not, then it's the horn, or a bad connection.

This is a stupid question but where is the stupid horn? I had the car on a lift and still unable to find it.

I am gonna make my horn sound louder by adding two more horns I have laying around. But first I need to find the one in the car. :owned:

I'm fairly certain that they come with two horns from the factory (correct me if I'm wrong people) but I don't know since mine were missing when i bought my car. Two horns are used to make it more noticeable, if not louder. If one is bad, like what i had on my '91 New Yorker, your horn will sound weak and people won't hear it.

There can be only one!

I haven't had a horn for like 3 years now! Every once in a while when I lock my doors with the key fob button it lets out a pathetic little "...phft..." homofart sound that makes me laugh my ass off.

Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the back of the car. Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you're going when you hit the wall, and torque is how far you drag the wall with you.

It was pretty good to me until the fuel pump wnet out. I got the car for free so I didn't bother fixing it. I just sold it to someone who would.

My fuel pump went out twice. As did the alternator. Engine blew once, so I got a new one. Now it's got a blown head gasket, blown valve gasket, burnt transmission, clogged radiator and broken thermostat, There's also no shock on the right rear wheel, just the spring.

But it's got a half of tank of gas in it!
