Horn Issue

I have an Auto 06 TL with about 65K miles. Sometimes I have to really push hard on the horn for it to work...in some cases holding it down until it works. Has anyone had this issue before? Any idea won't the problem could be?

I've been complaining about this exact problem for the last 3 years. Every time I take the car in, they say there's nothing wrong. Glad to see I'm not alone.

Yep, you're not alone. I wish I knew how to reproduce the problem. It only happens sometimes. I wonder if it's somehow tied to the airbag system because I do notice the airbag light stays on a bit longer (sometimes) than the other lights when starting the car.

Same for me, applying pressure not in the center is easier to horn

I am having a similar issue and am trying to have this fixed for the 4th time. The dealer is still trying to find the problem. Sometimes it works the first time, sometimes I have pressed it up to 10 times before it works. Daoes anybody think they have the answer to this? Thanks.

Yes! You may search for my post "Horn Problem Solved." I had this problem and finally got it fixed after the dealer spent time with the Acura Tech Line. I was told that the horn was losing its ground. Anyway the solution was to pack special conductive grease into the steering bearing. I was told this is a sealed bearing so it should stay there. My horn has worked perfectly since. Hope this helps.
