Hi all,
I have a problem with my horn. I have disassembled it, painted, put it back together, but it didn't work.
So I ordered used one from triumph tiger, It's a bit larger one, but it's the same 2.5A 105db horn, repeated, and tried it out, also doesn't work.
Now i think that i managed to screw something up while getting it back together. Or there is some other issue, but I do not know what.
So, when I connect the terminals on the main harness, it doesn't work. I have put light bulb indicator in parallel, and when I press the horn button it lights right up. So I think everything's ok on that side.
What's the use of the small screw on the backside of the horn?
Is this the right order: Horn, big washer, horn front face, small washer, blind nut?
Am I missing something here? I doubt that I have two not working horns.
Here are the pics of the parts of two horns layed out , can I assemble a working one from this?

Any advice would be much appriciated.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards, Kristijan

I am not sure that your original horn is as standard 400/4 one as they had a large centre utra-fine threaded part .. which is the mounting stud but also the coarse 'tuning' setting for the horn. The small screw should have a lock-nut and is for fine tuning of the horn sound.
Here is one of my post, showing a dis-assembled 400/4 horn

Thanks for the input. I don't know why i thought that it was original one.
Thanks for the input.
Being a resto, I'll try to get the original one.
If anyone has one spare, I am interested. ;D
