Re: Where are the horns located?
Thanks! "Luckily" my under tray started drooping down so I removed it. I did look under there today but didn't see it. I guess I'll go for attempt two tomorrow! I guess you go from the underside to access it then?

Where are the horns located?
After my alarm went off my horn(s) seem to have died. I hear a relay clicking when pushing the horn button, which I have also tested are confirmed is working, but there is no horn sound at all.

In other news: I have managed to fix my horn issue; I took the button off and lo and behold - it was disconnected :lol: So that's fixed now. However, I have noticed another issue - the long range li...

Re: A happy new 480 owner with a lot of questions
Oh, I just remembered. When I first got the car, I drove it home and parked at which point I locked the driver side (left) door with my key, and then went to the other side to check if that door was locked. It wasn’t and the alarm went off. It continued for a couple of excruciating and quite embarr...

Re: A happy new 480 owner with a lot of questions
Rear wiper and washer aren’t needed for MOT. High level brake light is, and the ABS light will fail too. Oh nice, I guess you're right! And the ABS goes out after starting the engine, so it's all good :P Ok guys! If I recall correctly, there are 3 cables there? Anyone knows what they all do? I gues...

Re: A happy new 480 owner with a lot of questions
Hello and a warm welcome to the club ! You will get plenty of help here from people who know a lot more than me, but I might be able to help with two things. The info centre has a back light - if the bulb is blown it becomes virtually invisible. Try looking at it in the dark. There is also a adjust...
