Hey all. I have recently purchased this ke55 and currently have no horn or hazard lights. Was going to replace the whole indicator stalk/ wiper stalk/ hazard switch unit but seems I have intermittent wipers and can only find replacement units that have off/high/low on the wipers. Any ideas?

Hi Daniel,

                Welcome aboard !  The horn not working is a perennial problem, that most come across, at some time or other.  I don't think that model had a horn relay.  Does your Rolla have one or two horns ?  Easy to test if the horns actually work or not, by running a wire from the battery to each horn's feed wire, & make sure that they actually work. 

In fact, it is a really good idea, to fit a horn relay, so the horn button wiper ring carbon contact, is only handling the relay current. The little carbon brush, wears down until, it's spring won't hold it against the ring.  Short term, You might get it to work, by "stretching" the fine spring a little.  You'll have to remove the steering wheel, to accomplish that.

You'll need the wiring diagram, to work out which coloured wire is which, on the wiper motor on the engine fire wall.  Again, You should be able to test the wiper motor, at the firewall, just in case it is the motor itself; & not the switch.

The lever assembly do wear out, & I remember replacing mine years ago.  Mine does not have an intermittent setting for the wipers.

Here is a link, that may help You.
