What is the reason for the unclear sound of the Buick Regal car horn?
2 Answers
Regal car horn sound becomes unclear because the horn is flooded with water. Solution for Regal car horn flooded with water: Go to a 4S shop or car beauty shop to replace the horn or wait for a period of time. As the temperature in the engine compartment rises, the water will slowly evaporate. Once the water inside the horn has completely evaporated, the sound will return to normal. Location of the Buick Regal car horn: The Buick Regal car horn is located under the right front headlight, inside the front bumper. When the car is lifted, it can be seen at the front right of the vehicle. The two horns of the Buick Regal are integrated and installed together.
I also encountered a situation where the horn sound became muffled while driving my Buick Regal. The main reasons were dust accumulation inside the horn or deformation of the diaphragm, which caused irregular vibration frequencies and made the sound hoarse. Additionally, if the electrical circuit has aged, such as insufficient battery voltage or rusty wire connections, unstable current supply can easily affect the sound quality. Moreover, after rain or car washing, moisture seeping into the horn chamber can cause short circuits or noise. I tried cleaning the external dust on the horn myself, but it didn't help much. Later, I went to a repair shop and replaced it with a new component to solve the issue. It's recommended to regularly check the vehicle's electrical circuits and horn condition, especially performing more maintenance during humid seasons, to avoid sudden malfunctions affecting driving safety.
