2003 - 156 Horn & Climate control

[Mattalia]

Hi everyone,

First post and new here Originally a member of Alfa Owners but having new joy! Can anyone help me out?

Recently picked up a 2003 156 so I'm back in the game with my 4th Alfa

I've just discovered that the horn doesn't work. I went to use it and there was nothing so I thought it maybe a fuse?
I tried it again and it worked for a second and then wouldn't work again, so I'm thinking that it may not be a fuse?

Does anyone have any ideas?

Also, the climate control, passenger sides work to adjust temperture up and down and the driver side is just stuck on 24c! Is this a case of a new unit or a simple fix?

Cheers

Matt

The horn didn't work on the GTA when I first had it, the garage changed the module in the steering wheel

Horns are not hard to change, or just hit it with a hammer

Don't know if it is just for the earlier 156's, but i have read somewhere of a heater reset routine, might need to google that one

Thanks, I'll find my hammer.......

I know a local garage who are always willing to help down the road from me called Motormech, good guys I've used them a lot.

I've heard of them, good reputation

I highly recommend, they've seen to my last other Alfas and my much loved Fiat Coupe
