All,
This is my first post on this board. I am a religious user of RR.net. It is, indeed, the foremost practical guide to owning Range Rovers. I put it ahead of my RAVE Disc.
I have been unable to solve one problem - my horn has not worked since I don't know when. We bought the vehicle in August '08 and it has never worked. Mind you, neither horn works.
I have done the following:
1. Ruled out that it was the relay. I put the horn relay in my '99 Disco and it worked for the Disco.
2. All of my circuit breakers appear to be intact.
3. I have visually checked the connections on the horn units and they appear to be fine.
4. I visually checked the connections at the bottom of the fuse box - no indication of a problem there.
5. Removed steering wheel pad and checked horn mechanisms. Found some soda residue from a previous owner's spill. All other steering wheel controls work, though.
My other problems that may be related are:
1. Overheated Relay 7 - One of the terminal sockets is worn.
2. Poltergeist locks - The locks just randomly lock and then unlock whether driving or not. The tailgate latch goes through phases of inoperability. Sometimes pressing it just makes all of the doors lock. I have to wrestle with it for about 5 minutes by just pressing it, unlocking with the key fob, repeat and it starts to work again.
I have searched this board (along with allexperts.com, landrovernet.com, etc.) for a similar issue to no avail. Thank you in advance for any help.
