+Nick Janson, I cannot reply to your comment for some reason but you have to evaluate the situation. I dont know if a hammer will work because that chrome bumper is heavy duty but give it a shot because you have nothing to lose.

HI Chris. Great video as always. You would be surprised at how many times I have seen cars that had bad horns and the repairs followed your example rather closely. One thing about the horn relay. If you hear a click, that only means that power is getting to the coil. The contacts are checked by checking the voltage as you did earlier. In my experience, if you get voltage to the connector, the relay is good. If you get a click and no voltage, the contacts are bad. And if you get no click and no voltage, it might be the relay but can also be the fuse or horn button. Its always good to see the younger generations understanding cars as well as you do. Keep up the good work! -Still keeping em running at 61

I knew one of the horns was dead on my Toyota Avalon but I couldn’t find the dead one. It turns out someone tucked away the harness in the bracket and there was no horn there in the first place. I now installed a new one and it works great. Thanks Chris!

My 2017 Toyota Corolla SE with a 6 speed manual transmission came from the factory with one wimpy little flat horn that wheezed its beep. I bought a pair of Wolo horns similar the ones in the video, followed the instructions for adding two horns to a one-horn car, and now it goes HONK! So much better.

Great video ChrisFix, I really like the editing and the continuity you provide for this type of DIY video it works really well. Would you consider doing a video on how you make your videos for youtube? There are many of us who would like to film different types of 'fix it' vids but hesitate on the technical aspect. Do you write a script? How do you prepare and how do you edit so flawlessly without making it look crappy like I see others who have good intention but fail because of the presentation. Thanks

When there's a screw on the back, screwing that in slowly while powered may cure it. It adjusts the contact breaker. Tune it for max volume, or purest tone. your preference.

I got a 2013 f150 ecoboost, and the fact my horn had a stock high pitch horn didn't sit right with me... especially since it's a full size truck.. was thinking to get an aftermarket horn with a deeper sound. But after listening to this, I'm certain it's just the low horn that's bad. I'll test it out before making the purchase!
