Got an old jeep horn that had the terminals loose and I took off the front cover to replace posts and refasten inner wiring etc. Replaced everything and put current through it, but although the solenoid/electro magnetic coil buzzing, it is not 'honking' the way it should. Is there a way to adjust the diaphragm travel (seem to remember big nut in middle rear of casing -does this affect travel or spacing between magnet and diaphragm)
Anything else I should be looking at -the horn on vehicle before was working ok (but more modern) so circuit to horn has power and no fault there.
Any more internal adjustments I should be checking out?:blush:
