General Failed Evo MOT (Horn)

[Graeme77]

My Evo just failed it's MOT due to a faulty horn. It doesn't work when the wheel is in a natural position, but when the steering is turned the horn works. Any ideas what could be wrong? Thanks.

Hi,
That is probably the steering wheel "clock spring" connection module.Steering wheel off job

Yes.. there is a contactor to keep the connection whilst the wheel turns..

Years ago I turned wheel upside down so dead spot was at the bottom..

Slightly different now with airbags.. but principle is the same
