Horn not Working

Miggggel · 02-03-2012, 08:25 PM

Hi, my fiance owns a 2007 Jeep compass standard edition and her horn is no longer working. it no longer chirps when you engage/disengage the alarm or when you press on the horn. I checked the manual and can not seem to find which fuse the horn is connected to. Has anyone come across this issue before. Her model does not have the ELVIC on the dashboard.
thanks

the horn is near of left front fender bolted on the front rail. When i got a problem on my caliber srt4 it's loosed bolt= bad ground = not working!

Realtune is right is right. Check if the horn is getting power before looking for circuit problems. Its an 07 and corrosion, bad ground could be the problems. When bulbs cease working it never the fuse either the bulb or socket failure.

Well I've got the 2012 Compass and the horn works but it sounds like a fanny.

Ha ha that must be the new improved model. They changed a number of things in 2011 and I gather 2012. Some appears not to be for the better.
