Looking for help with a few minor problems

[Panther1911]

I have a 2002 TrailBlazer.

I just bought it about two weeks ago.

There are a few minor things wrong with it, just checking to see if you guys had any advice

#1 - Horn not working - Doesn't work when I push the steering wheel or doesn't chirp with hitting the lock button on the key fob (when pressed a few times)

#2 - Drivers door opening doesn't signal the car to shut the radio off when getting out of the car, or doesn't turn the lights on when opening. (seems to be only drivers door so far)

#3 Rear speakers don't work. I am planning on upgrading them soon. Is the problem most likely the speakers, wiring or the radio?

1: probably horns, or the horn relay

2. probably the door open switch, inside the door, next to the latch, behind the outside handle.

3. speakers are a common failure, in these trucks, the wiring is probably ok.


Welcome to the group.

Thank you!

I replaced the rear speakers. They work now.

Still need to fix the door switch and speakers

 

[Panther1911]

is there a repair for the door open switch or something that will need to be replaced?

No substitute for taking off the interior door panel and looking for the switch. Often, it just needs lube.

Got the horn working, it was just corrosion on the wires between the plug and horn
