Horn not working and other electrical Q's

[KA27DB]

I haven't tried to figure out what the deal is yet. But the horn on my car isnt' working.

Also, I installed a new s14 OEM radio and the volume is always stuck really low. Can barely get loud enough to hear even when turned all the way up. Anyone know what the problem could be?

your clock spring could be messed up, thats why your horn doesnt work

and you might have wired your radio wrong

Mine's intermittent. What's a clock spring?

Is the radio a BOSE? If it is, it won't work...the Bose system doesn't have an amp in the radio, each speaker had its on amp. If it's not a Bose....maybe you wired it wrong...could have crossed the wires too (negative to positive and vice versa).

Oh cool. It's not a bose. I bet I crossed up the wires. It doesn't seem like a power input thing. what wires do you think could've gotten crossed up to cause all four speakers to be messed up?

also...clock spring? That thing that sits near the radiator? should it be fixed or replaced?

i could be wrong lol. I had two issues where someones horn didnt work and it was the clock spring, but both of them had airbags.

Pull out that middle part of your steering wheel and see if the metal tabs are connecting

yea my horn doesn't work either. I haven't been able to figure it out.

wtf does the clock spring do?
