My 73 2.0 has dual horns and one of them doesn't work. Before I replace it does anybody know if they have different tones? Anything else I should know?

They do, look on the back they should be embossed either 350 or 400 hz

I've read on here they are repairable.
Don't remember who's thread but l hope someone knows the link and will post it.

I've tsken these apart on early 911's and got them to work. If I recall correctly, there's a screw in there that adjusts the frequency.

Test the seemingly dead one, by itself, with a 12V supply. When they both work, it's pretty loud.

Ive repaired a bunch of them, it can be fairly simple or extremely frustrating. happy11.gif

You mean Hz as mHz is way WAY above human hearing which for most people ends about 20 kHz.

We just went through a horn that didn't work. There's contact points inside the horn that get corroded. There are magnet coils in there too that could get corroded, which could make it useless.
