Horn issues?

Can somebody verify this for me because I find it weird . If my car is off I am unable to use the horn only once I turn the car back on I can use the horn.

That's how it is on the 205. Horn is disabled when everything is off.
I know what you mean though - most cars keep the horn circuit live all the time.

Horn issue

At least yours worked mine was replaced after 12 months under warranty. It went to a single note when it should be a dual horn

It makes cleaning the car interior easy , I don't know if it counts though when you mention the safety part .
