Re: 50 Deluxe horn

Thanks for your response. I popped the covers off - first time ever, but nothing obvious revealed itself as the cause for the malfunction. The points appeared to be closed/in contact on both the working and non-working horn. Is that the normal position? When tested separately, the "non-working" horn actually made a very quiet "cough," as opposed to a bark by the other horn. By any chance does that indicate the horn is still viable and that an adjustment, rather than a parts replacement, might do the trick? I hesitated to make any adjustment so far out of concern for altering the proper tone of the horn, in the event I get it working again. I also was wary of damaging the rather stiff looking material of the piece that looked like it would have to flex in order to adjust the point gap. BTW, the electrical system is still 6 volts, positive ground.
