Beep is a rather simple thing, but very serious. Despite the fact that we rarely use the horn, this does not mean that it should not be in good condition. When the sound signals do not work or emit a quiet squeak, respectively, the devices need to be replaced. However, there are things that can be repaired. And even the Japanese signal sound "Toyota" is no exception. In this article, we will look at how to repair this part with our own hands.
Wiring condition
To begin with, if a malfunction is detected, you should check the integrity of all wires and evaluate their contacts. In order to do this, you need to remove the signal panel. The winding on the wires must be intact, without damage. Even if there is a small crack, this is already a reason to replace the damaged part. If you do not change the wire at this moment, after a couple of thousand it will still giveknow about yourself. Therefore, do not skimp on new parts and change them in time in case of breakdowns. The horns may work again after changing the wire, but this is not always the case.
What should I do if the horn still does not work after replacing the wires?
This indicates that you need to check the status of the relay and switch. This is done using a special device - a multimeter. It can accurately determine the current state of the part. During a visual inspection, not the whole picture is visible, so it is better to check with a multimeter. If the relay does not click, know that the car has a faulty electronic circuit. You should also check the audio signals for voltage. To do this, again take the multimeter and connect it to the signal. Click on the horn and wait for the sound to arrive. If it does not appear, this indicates a complete malfunction of the device. In this case, you need to install new sound signals on the car.
Should I immediately run to the auto shop?
Of course not. Sometimes the horn cannot make sounds due to rust that has settled on its contacts. After the negative readings of the multimeter, you need to move a little, and it is best to disassemble all the connections. If rust is found, it must be removed with strong agents. If this fails, the only way out is to buy a new part.
What should I do if the beeps are very quiet?
If the horn works, but at the same time produces a quiet sound, the source of the breakdown can be severalof things. First, you need to check the battery charge. If the green indicator is on on the sensor, you should look for a breakdown in the horn itself. To do this, take a small screw and attach it to the adjustment lever. Each time turning the screw a quarter, check the sound of the machine. Rotate it until the car starts to give a "he althy" signal.
And finally, a useful tip. When you assemble the disassembled part, pay great attention to the gasket that is installed between the horn body and the membrane. If it is not in the assembled part, consider that all the work will be useless.

The cylinder head is one of the most important components in the design of an automobile engine. The importance of this detail is emphasized by the fact that the cylinder head endures up to half of all internal combustion engine loads. Accordingly, the block suffers enormous loads. Therefore, every self-respecting driver should regularly diagnose this mechanism for cracks and deformations
