To (hopefully) fix this, try turning back cap (where AIR ZOUND is embossed) a 1/4" turn to the left, then a 1/4" turn back to the right. A wrench may be necessary. This should re-seat the membrane. Give it a try.<br /> If it's still 'windy' try turning back cap to the left until it pops off. Then check to make sure membrane is flat &amp; clean (ie no spiders!). Push &amp; turn back cap all the way back on. Let us know if this works! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=862#post-7630 Thu, 27 May 2010 14:35:56 +0000 recombodna 7630@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I think ( i could be wrong) there is a diaphram inside the round bit and that's what makes the zound.?? sounds to me like it's faulty or a hose has come undone inside...???? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=862#post-7584 Thu, 27 May 2010 11:06:29 +0000 spytfyre 7584@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>My horn stopped working recently, I am not sure how...<br /> I haven't had an accident, I am sure I didn't over inflate it.<br /> After it last ran down I tried filling it indoors when I got home and tested it the next morning outside I could hear the air scooshing out but not the usual satifying honk. It sounds as though the air schooshing noise is coming from the round bit with the AIR ZOUND ● AIR ZOUND under the button and above the horn shape<br /> I put a pressure guage on it after the scooshing noise had finished and it read zero<br /> I re-inflated it to 80psi and checked the volume adjuster but again got scooshing. Anyone has/had one and got any ideas what may have gone wrong before I throw it in the bin?</p> <p>I have written to the company and am considering returning the broken one to <a href="http://chainreactioncycles.com">ChainReactionCycles.com</a> to see if they can replace it but have long since discarded the receipt (I don't like receipts)</p> <p>PS you can tell when I have been away from the forum for a few days can't you? when the top half of the screen says me as the last poster </p>
