Where is the horn located on the Magotan?
2 Answers
The horn on the Magotan is located on the door panel. The horn serves as the vehicle's audio signal device, allowing the driver to emit necessary sound signals as required by regulations during driving to warn pedestrians and alert other vehicles, ensuring traffic safety. It is also used for urging movement and transmitting signals. The Magotan is a mid-size sedan launched by FAW-Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4865mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1471mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2871mm. In terms of power, the Magotan is equipped with three engines: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, a low-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine.
I've been driving a Magotan for many years, and the horn location is actually quite obvious. Before each drive, I do a quick check—it's hidden under the hood. When you open the front cover and look straight ahead, you'll find the horn fixed in a small space behind the bumper, usually a black or gray box-shaped unit snug against the radiator grille. If the horn suddenly stops working, don’t panic. First, try pressing it to see if there’s any sound, or check if the fuse is blown—the fuse box is typically in a corner of the engine bay, and its location can usually be found in the manual. I’ve replaced mine a few times myself—it’s pretty straightforward, mainly requiring a screwdriver to loosen the mounting points. Remember to clean off dust buildup regularly, especially in winter when moisture can affect performance. Keeping the horn clean enhances safety, ensuring it sounds crisp and loud while driving.
