Where is the horn on a Mazda Bongo?

Post by flo1 » Tue Mar 23, 2010 9:08 pm

Please can someone tell me where to find the horn on a Mazda Bongo? We havesearched our 1998 4WD Friendee high and low to no avail and cannot find any mention of it in the handbook either! Today a stupid person tried to overtake us on a country road. He was alongside us before he noticed the vehicle coming the opposite way. That's when I realised I didn't know where to push the hooter. Thank you to anyone who can help. Flo

Thanks for your answers. We didn't push the steering wheel because we thought it might activate the airbag and yes, we now feel rather silly! :oops:

Lots do, that's probably why Flo was worried about setting it off :wink: Some have passenger side ones too.

Mine's got an imaginary spike on the steering wheel. Safer than a real spike but still discourages me from tailgating.

I have them with and without an airbag. The airbag wheel has 2 obvious horn buttons on it - the non-airbag one works by just pushing the centre of the wheel.

I have two Mazda steering wheels, one that came with the bus and the other (from a newer model) I bought to replace my worn one, on both of them the airbag is the horn. I have seen about 5 different types of OEM Bongo steering wheels now and there's probably more out there :D
