I know this topic has definitely come up before but the search function is not bringing anything up on the subject?

Any quick fixes, kits, simple adjustment that can be made? getting kind of emabarrasing in traffic LOL

Thanks in advance.....

 

steering wheel bushings on a plate that keeps the airbag weight off the horn... the 95s take a different part than the 96+... My dealer had to fix mine before I took delivery last week... ordered a 96, drilled out the bushings and installed them on my 95 part... there are some threads onhere and Pelican to help you through...

An easy fix is cutting pieces of hose or building up a layer of silicone (which takes time to dry so not as "quick) for each bushing. I used silicone, which lasted a couple of years. The second time, I installed a new horn frame.

 

There truely is nothing you cant find out on RL.

 

Agreed, this place is unmatched re info and knowlegde!

 

Warmer weather must be impacting those bushings (maybe making them softer than normal??). Mine started doing this Sat. after being out in our record 107 degree heat.

 

I've used "shoe glue", which dries quicker than silicone, to help stiffen up the little bushings. Worked well, but the best solution is replacing the bushings.

 

It's an easy fix... replaced my horn support about two years ago... Maybe takes 15 minutes if you are really slow. Don't remember the cost exactly, but it wasn't expensive...

 

I have a '95.
Mine started also in this extreme heat (temp 105') and on hard braking.
What timing.
I love this place

 

if you dont want to fork up the $XX (i think its over 50) you can put some bubble wrap wrapped in seran wrap and some silicone where the bushings go and it works perfectly fine.. thats what i did.

 

Mine just started. I fell like an idiot when it goes off braking at a light. Heat for sure. It's 90+ in IL now.

 

Horn when braking, Hmmm...It could be from the guy BEHIND you!

 

We need a sticky thread with the title:
"If your horn honks when braking, if your odometer has stopped working, if your window won't go down, click here for the answer."

 

thanks for all the suggestions all, just yanked the fuse for now until i can set aside some time to replace the bushings.

 

What if you need the horn??? U GONNA DIE!
