Hooters

Thats a gooden that, had to look at the manual, NO mention of ignition on or off, just heck it works, is accessible, and the tone, so would be pass and advise from me,
but what use is a horn to a static vehicle ?

Not much point in a horn if the ignition is off. Think I would be in the same boat as phaetonott. I check the horn when the car is running when doing the wipers and lights etc.

I'm with phaetonott and Gaz. I wouldn't have thought to check it with the ignition off, so I would fail it for not working.

As a minimum standard I would have thought it should pass along with an advisory

With the steering in a certain position, make sure that certain position is the right position, and pass it

What if I presented a car with this type of horn phaetonott?

or like this?


Both perfectly OK to be fitted to any vehicle as long as the requirements below are met which are the only RfR's available:

2. The horn:
a. inoperative
b. is not loud enough to be heard by another road user
c. is a gong, bell or siren
d. has more than one tone

Note: When operated, a two or more tone horn automatically produces a sound which alternates at regular intervals between fixed notes.

e. fitted to a vehicle first used on or after 1 August 1973, emits a sound which is:
· not a continuous or uniform note
· harsh or grating.

...they couldn't be failed. Neither require the ignition either....

Since the information came from such a reliable source as yourself Gaz, I tried that on Mrs Jock, and that's not the noise I got, and my ears are still ringing.

Haha what breasts have you been tinkering with??

Remember that a Horn is called a Horn because they were all Horns like in the pic's above Gaz.

How do you fail a Horn for being a Horn?

They produce a Uniform sound Gaz, the RfR's available are:

"fitted to a vehicle first used on or after 1 August 1973, emits a sound which is:

not a continuous or uniform"


Horns like the pic's are a Uniform sound...

Err
Bit off topic now.
