The horn pump of the Fiat 500 may stop working. After checking that the fuse is not blown, proceed with the replacement.

First, remove the inner wheel arch panel on the driver's side front wheel. This operation is not very easy but can be done with a screwdriver or pliers.

Once removed, locate the horn to be replaced, which you will dismantle by unscrewing a bolt using a ratchet spanner, taking care not to lose the screw for reassembly. Disconnect the electrical connector and remove the old horn.

Connect the new one and check its operation. Insert the fixing bolt into its slot and reposition it; once the fixing hole is located, screw it in by hand and complete the operation with the ratchet.

This task is challenging due to the confined space, but by proceeding systematically, you will succeed. Once the horn is secured, proceed with reassembling the wheel arch.
