How do you fix a horn that does not shut off on a 2001 Mitsubishi Montero?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is three areas you can look at, relays, horns and horn pad; unfortunately it boils down to the most expensive one of them - HORN PAD. The problem arises from having a stuck horn pad which turns out to be with the airbag; all one piece. OUCH!!!! Pricing for a horn pad and airbag is about $1,200 plus labor, rough estimate $2,000

How much does it cost to replace a clutch in a 1997 Mitsubishi Montero Sport?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

For the cost of the clutch kit itself, figure about $150 (if you have a 4 cyl 2.4L engine) and $250 (if you have the 3.0L V6 engine). These are approximate prices, for a good OE-quality clutch kit if you were to purchase yourself from an auto parts store. Prices will vary depending on brand, quality, etc. Labor cost will vary from shop to shop. I don't have labor estimates; perhaps someone else can chime in. Best bet, call your local shops to compare.

Why does the driver side door lock make a loud buzzing sound when you turn off the engine or unlock the door using the alarm control?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is the 1st indicator that the POWER LOCK Motor is about top go out. If it is grinding on open & close then more than likely the teeth are grinding down on the gears. Replacing A.S.A.P. will eliminate the possibility of the Driver being locked out by remote and reling on the key to unlock for entry.

Believe there are 4 switches mounted in top of case. Lock switch, Lock Rail switch, Transfer switch, and Low switch. Every one but the low switch is normally ON ((has continuity) while not depressed). Sooo, they cannot be swapped around "willy nilly" either.
