Default Horn disconnect

How do you take off the horn? The manual doesn't get into this. I tried the big nut infront and the rubber started to twist and the one in the back did not move, maybe reverse thread? any help thanks

Hold the horn as you loosen the nut.If your trying to take off the rubber mount, jam two nuts together on the stud, then use the nut to loosing the mount. The rubber mount will twist quite a bit before it breaks loose.

It is not a reverse thread. Turn the horn cover bolt counter clockwise while holding on to the horn cover . This should stop the rubber mount from twisting. Once you get the horn cover off you can remove the horn but you will need a 10mm wrench, and since its not a standard sizenutI figure horn must be made in Japan or China.

Hold the horn with one hand and use the wrench with the other.

It's a bitch but it does come off.

I had the same problem and thought the rubber was going to rip apart, but it eventually broke loose.
