isptbart Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 My neighbor & I have brother 2007 coaches. His is a Camelot & mine a Scepter. Upon returning from a trip, when he turned off the ignition the horn sounds. Turn on the key & it stops. Due to the time & weather, I suggested he remove the horn fuse which temporarily resolved the issue. The other neighbors are grateful! We are looking for what would cause such a problem & how to resolve? Many Thanks in advance! Bart from VA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr4Film Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Possibly a bad ground? Those can be pesky buggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivylog Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I’d swap the smart wheel controllers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Cole Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 From what I've seen on this forum smart wheel controllers do a lot of stupid things.😏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr4Film Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Gary, Plus, in some coaches like mine they bury the controller way back in the middle of the dash making it difficult to get to. Obviously placed by some wannabe engineer who never has to work on these coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacwjames Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) There is a troubleshooting guide in the downloads section. You might look at it. There is one connector on the controller that has the horn function. You might try unplugging it an put the fuse back in to see if the horn still blares. If it does that would eliminate the controller as a potential cause. The horn button goes to the VIP controller and the controller has a relay that grounds the horn. So if you have a ground somewhere in the mess of wires it could be causing your problem. Edited January 17, 2022 by jacwjames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isptbart Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 All - thanks for your recommendations. My friend is in Virginia with another batch of snow but quietly parked beside his home. I will pass on all of your suggestions & once he has discovered the cause & repair I will post the results. Thanks! Bart from VA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
