When they installed the roof Electric, they did NOT use a dash switch, but did when they installed the optional Air horns. Doug Mine are electric and I thought they didnt work untill I stood outside and had someone blow the horn.

I am sure that they are elect, not that you mention it. As they have wire going to them not a hose. Will get a pict up in a few hours.
If they are elect, why don't they work? Is there a relay somewhere that is not working? I do NOT have any bad fuses.

We just returned from our summer vacation and put our motorhome in for oil and filter changes, etc. The air horn sounded like a sick goat on the trip, so I had the shop check for repairs. The horn is required in Texas for the annual safety inspection. The shop found the the horns were full of mud dobbers nests. They cleaned them out and it sounds great.

Usually they rust out internally. You have to replace them. Doug

Thanks Doug,

Spray some WD40 into it. Don't over do it, cause it will make a mess.
