Where does the sound a car's horn make come from?

I am no mechanic, but I've looked under the hood a few times, and I've never seen anything that resembles a horn. And some horns don't even sound like horns. Is it computer generated these days?

Where does the sound a car's horn make come from?
No they hide horns in all kinds of places. In the fender wells, in front on either side of the radiator behind the front grille. Just have someone blow the horns and follow the sound to the source. Horns are also made to blow at different frequencies. That's way they sound different.





Good Luck
Reply:The horn is a mechanical device. It has a coil in it which vibrates when electric is applied to it and shakes a metal disc, called the diaphragm to make the sound. If you look in behind your front bumper, or around the radiator in the engine compartment, you should find a round black part, about as big around as a coffee mug with one or two wires coming out of it. That is the horn. Have a friend push the horn button and look for where the sound comes from to find it.
