Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Probable explanation for my horn problem!

The only way you can make it tighter is to gently squeeze the connector with a pair of pliers. This way it will grab the male spade part on the fuse box better.

Subject: [Ferrari] Probable explanation for my horn problem!

 

Today, I decided to check the fuses. I tested a couple of relays (0332019151) yesterday and all were good.
In april 2023 I put the Birdman’s fuse boxes in. I just noticed the #16 (horn) was quite loose. It was easy to push it up and down. Still a bit tough to take it out but can this have been the problem ?
#17 (right fan) was quite loose too. Both fan worked yesterday by the sound of it, I didn’t check if BOTH worked.

If this was the origine of my  problem, meaning horn not working only when engine running, how do you get these things tight ? I tried with my thumb finger nails, but to no results. I couldn’t find a tiny enough screwdriver blade.
Any ideas ?

If that was the problem, now I only need to figure out the mess I made with the ground wire attached to the horn button.
