THe horn on my 2003 206 has stopped working. I had trouble before with poor connection but this time I think it is the horn itself. The horn is in a really tight space and difficult to work on is there an easier way to get at it without struggling for access behind one of the pipes.
Hope someone can advise.
Thanks
John

Bumper off or put a new horn on somewhere else.

No need for bumper removal lol! I jacked up the front and went under the car to access the horn which is just by the grill. You can remove and fit a new one quite easily!

I just pulled the SP grille forward on the side the horn was.

Thanks for all the suggestions. What is the SP grill? Tried to remove the grill under the bumper but couldn't find the fixings and isn't the bumper awkward to remove. I managed to get at the wiring (which is too short!) with my troubles before but scarred my hands because of the tight space.
Another question...... Is there a relay in the circuit (should I hear it click if it is working?) and what does it look like and where is it.
My other car is a 1951 MG and so much simpler!
Thanks
John
