[Healeys] Horn puzzle

[Oudesluys]

Check the wires, connectors and earth connections first. You can then 
try the adjuster nut. If that does not work these horns are easily 
rebuild by drilling out/grinding of the rivets, clean up inside, prime 
and paint (apart from contact areas), and replace the rivets with new 
rivets, fitting screws, washers and nuts or pop-rivets. Use some sealant 
on the rims/membrane and some silicone grease on the adjusting nut/bolt 
to make the horns watertight. Finally adjust until they sound best.
