I Have a Renault Scenic 1.6 RT 1999 After having a new clutch fitted I noticed that the indicators would not self cancell and the horn has stopped working.I have removed the horn and tested it on a battery and it works fine, all fuses are ok and all conections have been checked and seem ok.
Is there a switch between the horn and ignition as shown in my Haynes manual (is it like a relay) and what could be the problem with the indicators not self cancelling, are both problems some how connected as they both appeared at the same time.
I have noticed on another site someone has an identical problem (both faults at the same time) but no ideas on resolving them, any help would be great, thanks Steve
I had the same problem. Horn not working and indicators not self cancelling.
After removing the steering wheel I found that the central two pronged
collet, that engages with the steering wheel and drives the horn contact
slipring and indicator cancellation, had worn down its prongs. this had
caused the horn wires to stop rotating and they had been snapped by the
motion of the steering wheel.
the ideal solution would be to replace the collet and horn wires but I managed to repair both

Yes there should be a relay under the bonnet somewhere as for the indicators they usually cancel from the steering wheel but it could somehow be connected to the relay hope this helps regards Jim

I cant find any relay so I decided to check the horn pressure switch, I followed the red & black wires from the pressure switch on the stearing wheel (after removing air bag,batt off & 20 min wait)
these wires lead back to just under the indicator stalk, I removed the connectors and put bat back on turned ign on then using a short bit of wire touched the two turminals togeather anh hey pristo the horn worked.
so I removed the stearing wheel (bat off first) and removed the rotating disc under it, this was the problem, the two contacts on one part of the disc were not making a good contact so I bent them slightly to increse the pressure, reasembled it upto the stearing wheel going back on (reconected bat, ign on) and tested the pressure switches (3 of then) all worked
horn worked ok, (disconected bat wait 20 min before putting airbag back on) reasembled everything and it is now ok.
The problem with the indicators not self cancelling has also been fixed dont know how
thank Jim for the advice on the relay it mus be there just cant find it
have a renault megane scenic 1999 ,horn worked when it felt like it,took steering wheel cover off and found 2 of the 3 pressure switches broken,can you get replacements? but even the good switch dosent sound horn,fuse is fine ,any ideas? also have problem with rear wiper again works when it feels like it,checked fuse and connections and seems to be ok any ideas? and today automatic door locking system has packed up ,the one when you drive off ,but you can still lock the doors via the big switch on centre console,have checked all door switches and they operate fine any ideas as this is becoming very frustrating!!!!!!!!!!
