Where are the horns on a 3rd gen Camry???

What up.

Need help on locating the horns on my 94 camry. I am replacing them with aftermarket Japanese ones with echo effect.

Anyway, I see the horn behind the grill and disconnect it. Then I push my horn button and it is still going off. It is obvious that there is another horn somewhere but I can't locate it.

I didn't know my car had 2 horns. Looked in the haynes manul but it only says it has 1 horn. Not true.

My aftermarket horns came in a pair so there must be 2 horns.

If anyone knows the location of the 2nd horn, please help me out. Thanks.

it is located under your right-side headlight, if you take off your bumper you should see it. I found that by accident when i took my bumper off the other day

So there are 3 now???

Thanks guys. I will look.

BTW, does anyone have aftermarket horns? Not just replacement ones. I've connected one and it doesn't honk. It connects with the factory connection but no power is going to it.

^ Make sure your horn is grounded properly.

As well, I think I had the same probably...I disconnected one horn, hooked up my new one and it didn't work. Only until I disconnected the 2nd factory one did it start to work. Still kinda has me stumped but I removed the aftermarket one....

I've just installed my new horns, but they didn't work. Don't know, maybe it needs a different voltage.

So I reconnected my factory horns and they didn't work either.

Silver Streak, what happened to yours, how did you reinstall your factory horns and make them work? Mine are dead now

Please give me some insight. Thanks.

I finally figured it out. The ground was not connected. Even though the connections were connected, it wouldn't go of unless the horns are screwed back in place. The ground is when the horn is touched with the frame of the car....

Anyway, my car sounds like a lexus now

Thanks guys for your inputs.

Good stuff!

FYI: The Gen3's have a high & low horn, and my low horn had a bad ground also, so I was running on my stock "bitch" horn for a few summers... the wimpiest sound you ever heard. The good part was, when driving past some cuties or jailbait, it was always fun to do a double-tap on the horn for a little "beep-beep"... pimpin' aint easy.
