Pedal provides vibration feedback from the horn

-Joe · 29th September 2010, 23:47

When I press my 75's horn button whilst driving along, the pedals vibrate in frequency with the car horn. Is this usual, do other members notice this? I don't like it and want to damp this pedals vibration.

This post has nothing to do with ABS workings, I know what that is this and it's not that.

I need good working car horns to avoid badger surfing and deer limbo-ing.

I do not think the horn is that powerfull, but that is just my opinion

.
Is it the same sensation as when ABS is activated?. If so something is afoot with your ABS (pun intentional) I would imgine, the only electronics that make the pedals vibrate. When you press the horn the car thinks the wheels are locking, it needs hooking up to a T4, suprised it has not blown the fuse.

Does this happen when stationary, if so it must actually be activating the ABS
