Where is the horn located on the Jetta VS5?

The horn of the Jetta VS5 is located inside the car's grille. You can see it by opening the front hood. It is important to keep the surface of the horn clean and avoid placing any foreign objects into the horn to prevent abnormal sounds. Taking the 2019 Jetta VS5 as an example, it is a compact SUV with the following dimensions: length 4419mm, width 1841mm, height 1616mm, wheelbase 2630mm, fuel tank capacity 51l, and curb weight 1310kg. The 2019 Jetta VS5 features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, maximum torque of 250Nm, and maximum power of 110kW, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
That day I removed the front bumper of the Jetta VS5 to repair collision damage, and I remember the horn location very clearly. It's positioned right behind the front grille at the very front of the car, just below the radiator—you'll need to lift the hood to see it. Two round horns are mounted left and right on the beam bracket, covered by a plastic panel, and you can feel the connecting wiring harness by reaching in. Before driving in rainy weather, it's best to check this spot to ensure it's not clogged with mud. Last time, I saw an owner whose horn got muddied after wading through water, causing distorted sound. Actually, most Volkswagen group models prefer this layout. If you're replacing it yourself, remember to disconnect the battery negative terminal first for safety.
