Troubleshooting Suzuki Samurai Horn - A Common Problem.

Troubleshooting Suzuki Samurai Horn - A Common Problem. A very common problem on the Suzuki Samurai SJ413 SJ410 Jimny JA51 is the horn not working. This is likely because the horn is not tucked in behind the bumper or in the fender out of the weather as with most cars. It's right in the grill so it gets exposed to weather and typically the horn itself breaks after a while. The first step in troubleshooting the horn is to jump a 12 volt positive source and a ground for the other connection to see if the horn itself is broken. If so, there are plenty of good aftermarket horns available at a very inexpensive. The other common problem is at the horn rig itself on the steering wheel. Typically this area can get corroded after a while especially in harsh climates where you are four wheeling with the top off. You will need a steering wheel puller to get at the horn ring and clean up all the corrosion. Then coat everything with WD40 to help keep the corrosion from coming back. Before you pull off the steering wheel mark the position so you install it back the same as it was before. Then use some Loctite blue and torque the steering wheel bolt to 18 to 28 ft lbs.
