  7. Thanks guys have now established that horn works when wired direct to battery, also there is a permanent 12v to one of the connections I now need to know where the purple with black stripe goes off to as I suspect that may be the issue ?? The diagram shows that one Purple /black wire from each horn join and then one wire goes to the horn psh assembly. I need to know where these wires join ?? Thank you
  8. Thanks Pete I disconnected both terminals and connected a multi meter to them , pushed the horn and nothing ? Are both horns fused by the same fuse ?

  10. Hi Guys wondered if anyone can help me (In Lay man terms ) how to fault find on a horn (Two Litre Vitesse ) The horn on the passenger side doesnt sound and I need help to fault find and repair . The wiring diagram shows a perm 12v live to each horn and the the return wire from each one then join and switch to earth through the horn push? If I have understood the diagram correctly ? So the first question is where do I locate where the two return wires join as I suspect this is a good place to start ? Also in my haste to trace the wiring I have dislodged a Blue/white striped wire from its push joint central above the front grille, there is a joint with three other blue/ white stripe wires is it safe to assume that this belongs here ? any help gratefully recieved
  11. Hi Guys Newbie here! Have just ventured into the scary world of classic cars, by buying a lovely looking Mk 2 vitesse convertible . Am loving the car with the exception of the overly loud exhaust system would appreciate some advice here, apparently its a stainless system (except down pipe) into a centre box , then into two rear boxes . Lovely rasp at tickover but does my head in on a decent drive ! What are my options and costs pls ?? Be gentle with me !
