    Costs me 40c every time I hit the horn!-help

    Hi
    My Defender 130 1996 blows a 20A fuse almost every time I hit the lever!

    And when it goes the radio stops and if you turn of the ignition it loses the code too.

    Anyone seen this before? Indicator lever switch faulty? or start with the horn?

    I just stocked up on fuses but Rego due in 3 weeks! so need to fix it.

    Any ideas?

    I thought to disconnect horn and see if it blows fuses but also could be dodgy lever switch. Good old Lucas

    Thanks

    james

    unplug the actual horn and then press the button to see if it still blows the fuse......

    if the fuse doesnt blow....then replace the horn.........

    What Defenderzook said. Horn fills with water and shorts out.
