Having trouble with my Dixie horn...

Howdy there. I'm no mechanical expert, but I happen to have the JC Whitney dixie horn in my own car. No problems with mine, though of course the compression gets low and the horn slows down if ya play with it too much. Works best when the engine is running and it's good and charged up.

Anyhoo - sounds like you could have a short in the horn. If this is a brand new kit, it's possible you have a defective one. I'd suggest making sure the horn is clean and free from debris.

If you have the horns pointing up, near the grill, it's possible that moisture can get inside the horns and raise havoc.

If you've checked all the basics, and there's no cause found for the sour note - I'd recommend returning the horn for an exchange.
