difficult to honk my horn
Dear Friends
I have difficulty honking my horn. It is too tight. I have to push hard each time that really questions my safety on the road. Do you know any easy and cheap solution for it ? I have 2004 built e60. The steering wheel is standard and not M sport one. All the best |

I had an issue when replacing a steering wheel horn button... it was damn near impossible with the air bag. So what did I do? Traced the horn wire, put a button on my dashboard and it was my new horn button. Sure would look odd on a BMW, but..... I think you need a new steering wheel unless you're willing to take it apart and look at the mechanism. In which case you probably wouldn't be posting the question..

Thank you.
I asked my software guy to use two unused function buttons on the steering wheel to function as horn. He will investigate. Could those 2 buttons programmed as horn button? I hope yes.. |
If you have someone willing to take apart the steering wheel, maybe you can see an obstruction or something there that's making it hard for you to press the button/airbag down.
I don't think it's very likely to "program" the buttons for the horn.. |
I am not brave enough and afraid to damage s.thing especially airbag related :)
In my area, now looking for a good bmw technican who knows what he is doing to help me out. |
The airbag is really simple to pop off and look at. I believe there's a diy on the forum on how to do it. If you can't find it, I'll type up some instructions for you later when I get on a computer.

Thank you indeed.
in fact i believe i can do those things easily. Do i need special tools to pop up the dashboard for other issues as well as steering wheel airbag etc ? I believe ebay etc has a good source for that. |
