What brand? There are tons of replacement drivers for most horns, based on the diameter of the driver, which usually screws into the horn. JP

You can certainly check the horn with an ohm meter to see if the coil is burned open. the cap is there to protect the horn from low frequencies (simple crossover). The final test is to apply an audio sinal thru the protection cap to the the horn.

Hey Guys...........

You'all should know and understand that the caps used in these horns/drivers have to be "NON=POLORIZED" caps !!!! Not just any ole cap will work,in fact useing a polorized cap may/will distroy a horn. That is why the more hi-end horns have replaceable drivers. It's sorta like "Peaveys" speakers, you can replace the coil without haveing to purchase the whole new speaker unit. "Peavey" really did the right thing by haveing the basket replaceable seperatly.

I've had sets to come in for repair that someone placed the speaker lead stright off the output trannny to the input clips. These horn drivers DON'T take/need a lot power to function. They can be burnt out extreamly easy.
