    Does anyone know the best way to access the air horns on a 1994 348 Spider? The compressor is working fine but there is no sound from the horns. They are either bad or there is a break in the tubing.

    From what I recall, pulling the front bumper is the only way to thoroughly check the air horn tubing.

    Not the best photo, but you can get the idea.

    As Wade said. Bumper off. Mine stopped working as the tube fell off at the Y piece. Cut it back an inch and refitted. All good.

    There's pulling the bumper off,

    then,

    there's cutting the bumper off.


    If you're only going at the horns, probably the first option is more cost effective!

    I'd hazard to say that someone used the bumper literally. :(

    Taking half of it is easier than removing the whole thing.

    As has been mentioned you need to remove the front bumper to access the horns.
