A way to test it out is to just open the boot, press the switch down, lock the car, then take your hand off the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA MKII T. The horn only sounds if any doors are not closed. If a door is not closed, the car horn will sound a few times. If the boot lid is not closed / locked the horn will not sound. If you leave the boot lid oben / up and you look the car with the remote, the horn will not sound !! So before you walk away from the car you have to make sure the Boot is shut and looked.PSIf you don't shut the boot lid and drive off, the dash light / chime will tell you that a Door or Boot is not shut.

daggie New Member 1 Member For: 12y 8m 21d Posted 24/01/14 04:08 AM Share Posted 24/01/14 04:08 AM Can someone please tell me where the switch for the boot being open is. In the old days the open door or open boot/bonnet was a plunger style switch like in old fridges. I'm bloody positive that my boot switch is cactus, but I cannot find it to test it with my fluke multimeter. Any help is greatly appreciated. My car is a 2003 BA manual turbo I've had since new. I hope someone can help as this constant alarm is driving me nuts. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
