Why is the Geely Vision's horn not working?
2 Answers
The reasons why the Geely Vision's horn is not working are as follows: 1. Water ingress due to poor sealing: The horn is internally sealed, but if the sealing is not tight, water vapor can easily enter during car washing, causing the contacts to become damp and malfunction. 2. Poor contact at the electromagnetic coil terminal: Some horns have aluminum metal connections at the terminals of the enameled wire inside the electromagnetic coil. If the insulation paint on the ends of the enameled wire is not properly removed or the rivet connection is loose, a poor connection can occur, leading to the horn not working. This type of fault can only be resolved by replacement, not repair. 3. Contact erosion due to prolonged horn use: Pressing the horn for extended periods can cause the contacts to erode, creating resistance. This reduces the current through the electromagnetic coil, preventing it from attracting the armature to drive the diaphragm and produce sound. However, when the horn is pressed repeatedly, the momentary high current can still pass through the resistance, allowing intermittent operation.
It's really annoying when the audio system in a Geely Vision suddenly stops working while driving. I've encountered this situation before, and there could be several possible reasons: First, it might be a power issue, like a blown fuse. The fuse box in the car is located under the steering wheel—check the corresponding audio fuse. Second, the connection wires might be loose or damaged. The Geely Vision's audio system is prone to wire disconnection due to vibration. Third, the audio unit itself might be faulty, such as a broken amplifier or a damaged speaker. Fourth, you might have accidentally pressed the mute button or turned the volume down to the minimum—just check the settings menu. Also, if the Bluetooth audio isn't working, it could be that the phone connection was lost, so try re-pairing. I recommend first checking the basic settings and the fuse yourself. If that doesn’t work, take it to a repair shop. Regularly cleaning the connectors as a preventive measure can help avoid driving with just noise and no music.
