Horn Price

[Mangate]

Anyone know what a horn for a 172 costs at the stealership? I need the high note one of the pair. They quoted me 100 quid here in Mexico.

Do you have scrap yards over there? If so look there.

There are scrap yards over here, but a car like this would be rebuilt, whatever had happened to it. Renault left Mexico years ago and only just started again a few years ago. The only cars you find in a scrap yard are about 20 years old.

What is wrong with the horn, if it's stopped working the connection may just be loose/dirty. I wouldn't know how to fix it though, stan* sorts it for me normally.

I went through a bit of a flood on the road a while back and just afterwards the high note horn stopped working. The low note is still OK.
I took it off and checked it direct on the battery and it sort of half worked if I beat it. I assumed the water had done the damage, but after looking through various posts here, it seems like they aren't too reliable.
I should have taken it back to the dealer before December, but now the guarantee has expired. I like the sound it makes, that one on e-bay looks pretty feeble as it's only a disc type, like on mopeds. The original is a trumpet type, although still electromechanical.

The horn from any car would do the job, just bodge it to make it fit.
