Hey all. 

89 e34 530i m30 b30

Hello can anyone tell me if my relay is in the front fuse boxes either side engine bay or under the rear seat?
And number/details for relay part to check correct. 
My Horn just stopped working. 

Fuse good if not relay anyone had the same problem. 

Cheers

Cheers. 

No luck is it common with age air horns are dead? I started to attempt to remove grill bits to get to them check connections clean etc but didn't get far. I knew I'd break something not knowing where clips process order etc.

Would think its more likely the connection but its possible it just died with these cars being old. There is hole above the indicator lens in which you stick a long flat screw driver down to release the corners.

I can email a copy of the E34 Bentley manual which give you a step by step.

Thanks that would be great Haynes manual doesn't mention those holes to release. 

And by connection you mean to the horns?.I

'm wrecking a 89 525 auto at the moment for a few spare parts so have some to try to eliminate horn when get to them.. My have some parts sell after done
