Horns

michael1424It takes energy not to get used to it!

Next question for the Detomaso Oracles....

Horns. Are the original horns serviceable?

I have 12V going to them, but no beepy beepy noise coming out of them. Does anyone know before I spend time pulling them apart if they can be repaired or am I hitting the stores?

Thanks in advance..

Michael,

The problem is usually due to rust. Open them up and see what's going on inside. If it's light rust, usually it can be cleaned.

I would suspect corrosion on the terminals.

I think they're the only item in the front clip that grounds directly to the chassis, so you'll need a good contact there too.

...I went with FIAMM Twin 'Air-Horns'.
With a 12 Volt 'On-Demand' Compressor, Wired to the Existing Horn Circuit.
They Sound Beautiful! Just like Italian 'Country' Horns.
Just as It should be on a Pantera! IMO

I will sell the 2 Original '74L Horns (NO Bracket), I believe they still work, I'll test them. NO Rust. Anyone who wants them, PM Me here. I will ship worldwide at cost. They will be listed at the 'Parts for sale'.
