Haunted Horn on 307...

[dukey406]

Hi guys, I realise this is a 406 forum and mine is fine and well (for now).
This question is on behalf of my wife and her horny 307!
Basically it has a case of the electrical gremlins. When it feels like it the horn sounds and stays on until you disconnect the battery. It can behave for half a day or 10 mins depending on how it is feeling. Also intermittently, the temperature gauge goes up to full and the stop light comes on (Replace sensor & checked wiring, still same).
I have been reading and some comments are pointing me towards a BSI fault.
Is this likey, has anyone else had similar experiences?, any help greatly appreciated as it's stopping the MOT tester from testing the horn at the mo

Looks like that's the opposite problem, on that one the horn doesn't work but Dukey's wife's works all the time.

Any chance of an RPO for the 307?

Incase it helps others, I followed the reset procedure on BBA-REMAN's website, I believe the 406 has the same BSI Unit also:-

Before sending the unit try the BSI Reset procedure as this may cure your faults:

Put the driver's window down, lift the bonnet and ensure all equipment is switched off.

Ensure all doors are closed and remove key from the ignition.

Wait for 3 minutes, disconnect the vehicle battery and wait 15 seconds.

Reconnect the vehicle battery, wait a further 10 seconds (do not open doors.).

Switch on the side lights through the driver's window.

Switch on the ignition and check system's functionality.

Hold lock button on key down for 10 seconds.

Remove key open & close door test central locking system.

Start the engine and complete the system's check.

Failure to follow this procedure could result in incorrect operation of many BSI related items.


This cure the two faults!
