Crown Horn Button CR089318-003 – CR-182

This horn button switch is built for Crown lift trucks, serving as the operator-actuated switch that completes the circuit to sound the truck's warning horn when pressed. It mounts within reach of the operator's hand on the control handle or dash, providing a quick, deliberate action to alert nearby pedestrians or equipment.

The switch weighs 0.1 pounds, consistent with a small pushbutton switch housing rather than a larger control module, reflecting its role as a single-function momentary switch.

As a switch that gets pressed repeatedly throughout every shift, the internal contacts of a horn button wear from repeated actuation, and over time they can pit, corrode, or lose spring tension in the return mechanism. A failing horn button typically shows up as a horn that requires extra pressure to activate, an intermittent connection that sounds the horn only sometimes, or a button that sticks in the pressed position. Replacing the button restores reliable, single-press horn operation, which matters both for operator convenience and for the basic safety function the horn serves in shared traffic areas. Forklifts Etc. carries this horn button as a Crown-specific replacement part.
