### Condition

Some customers may comment about a muffled tone or an intermittent low or no tone when the horn is activated.

### Cause

This condition is caused by water intrusion into the horn assembly under wet driving conditions.

### Correction

To correct this condition replace the horn assembly with the current horn assembly available from Saturn Service Parts Organization (SSPO). The current horn assembly has a deflection shield added to prevent water from entering the horn assembly.
