Replacing the Horn Button on the Steering Wheel

Model: Land Rover Discovery MK 2, Discovery 2, L318 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Steering wheel

This tutorial describes how to replace the horn buttons directly on the steering wheel. Using a lever (in the video, a small flathead screwdriver), remove the plastic button from its housing on the steering wheel. Be careful of the internal mechanism, which consists mainly of a resistance spring. Install any compatible button in structure and size with the original, replacing the worn one. Do the same for the second button. Finally, test the correct installation and the proper functioning of the buttons, which should produce an adequate sound when pressed.
