2000 Accord horn unreliable

Discussion in 'Accord' started by Pete from Boston, Jul 7, 2009.

  1. I have a 2000 Accord EX coupe and my horn doesn't necessarily work
    when I press down on it. Sometimes it does if I press hard enough, or
    find the right spot, or both. Does the horn switch on this car tend
    to develop a short in some predictable way? Is it something a home
    mechanic with some experience can fix reasonably given the airbag
    being there?

    It might be the horn, not the switch. My 1987 Civic developed this problem.
    I bought a new horn (maybe two) and installed it (or them). Had to take off
    the bumper cover, but it wasn't that hard.

    I don't think I'd try replacing the switch myself, given that the airbag is
    right there.
