Hello, I have looked on the internet for the answer to this but have been unable to find. I thought I would ask on here. Does anyone know where the horn is on a 59 Vauxhall Insignia Please.  Thank you in advance. Ali

I have no idea, but obvious places to look are center of steering wheel or push in the indicator / windscreen wiper  stalk / switch.

It appears its on the panel between the spokes of the steering wheel.

Press the bottom edge. There is a symbol which looks like a trumpet on the place where you press.

No, really?!

Hi Kimmie, Sorry I didn't explain that very well did I :) The horn operation button are on the steering wheel but the actual physical horn has stopped  working and it needs an MOT. Maybe a wire has come off....Thanks though.

"It is placed on the drivers side, in the front bumper, near the front fog lights."

"front bumber off job to replace the horn"

You can download the booklet from the internet. Might be worth doing a print out of the pages for fuses etc just in case.

missus g
once you have tried everything else fuses etc
if you can reach the horn without taking bumper off then it may be worth you paying 10 pounds for a new horn pulling the 2 wires off and fitting a new horn just screw/bolt it to a suitable point there are plenty of places in the area you can fit a new horn
sometimes the 3 hours removing and replacing a bumper just isnt worth the 10 pounds cost of a new horn if you can reach the wires to the old horn to pull them off it will be a 20 min job at the most compared to 3 hours removing and replacing bumper

That's what we're worried about. It's going for MOT!
