G,Day everybody.
Can anybody out there give me any information on where to get my F15A horn restored/repaired in Australia?

I may have a ford horn to sell, if you are interested, the horn on my Dukw is actually a Blitz horn, and I picked up a GMC one today at a swap meet.

A GMC CCKW horn is NOT the same as a DUKW one. Check your manuals.

Lyle, you may be able to fix it yourself. These horns are pretty simple and if you need any of the guts they are the same as any old Ford horn. If the horn on the DUKW is the Ford one, and Tim says it is, that's an easy way out.
Cheers,
Barry

Hi everybody,
Thanks for all your suggestions on how to fix the problems with my Ford Blitz horn. I have stripped; cleaned; rebuilt; replaced a few bits as well & am now getting a tone out of it. All I have to do now is clean & paint the housing and fit it to the truck. Then on to the next bit……..

Don't worry. As the bumper sticker says, 'Horn broken, watch for finger.'
