Cruise Control and Horn

[JaroszNC]

Pardon my ignorance, but I am new to Rovers... so far I like working on these. I have a 2000 Discovery that has non working horns [both by steering buttons and alarm settng] as well as a Cruise Control that will not engage. Since I saw it in an earlier post, the light DOES come on when I turn CControl on, but speed will not set. I found some documentation that leads me to believe that these may be related in a fuse/relay issue. I replaced a fuse that was blown for the horn, but nothing changed.

Any suggestions?

Also, does anyone have a good source on Relays? US parts store seem to be no help whatsoever.

Cruise control is probably bad vacuum lines, start at the 'T' right inside the engine bay drivers side. You should see it going into a hole in the firewall next to the fender... check all of the connecting vacuum lines, I am sure you will find some that are cracked. Either replace with silicon lines or cut them back past the cracks.

Horn, I would check to make sure the horns work by adding direct power to them.

Thanks again, Joey...

I had a similar problem with my D1. I tried replacing hoses and nothing helped. turns out the clock spring was bad in the steering column. I bought one on e-bay for 80.00 and paid a local mechanic 100.00 to replace and have had cruise and horn ever since.
