Hello,
God bless you all.
I have a Nissan Tiida 2007 and the horn works when the steering wheel is straight. But when turn to the right or left and press the horn it does not work. Why is this?
Thank you

Welcome. Might be ground issues. Not sure.

That's weird. ^That's the only thing I could think of. Sorry about that, and good luck.

..or maybe the metal contact points on the steering are dirty?

your body combination switch is most likely going out. Thats what happened to mine wehn my horn would only honk if the steering whell is turned a certain way.

I try to check the metal points. Maybe they are corroded.

 

[bigdaddychia]

sure dont listen to me. I told you what the problem is.

'Body combination switch'..............the funniest thing I've ever heard of and then the poster acts mad because we don't buy it.

Last poster, look at the clockspring, the likely problem for the original poster as well. It is a ribbon that spirals around the steering center as the wheel is turned and it breaks very easy internally after some time of doing it over and over hundreds of times. It can work horn straight ahead but turn wheel and it quits, the break in the ribbon opens up. It can mess up cruise control and airbags too if you break contacts for those, they are in that part too. Anything mounted on the steering wheel can have trouble with that.
