A membrane horn switch assembly for operating a horn of a vehicle, the horn switch assembly includes a membrane switch with an upper nonconductive sheet having a first electrically conductive coating and a lower nonconductive sheet with a second electrically conductive coating, the second electrically conductive coating including a first conductive grid and a second conductive grid, the first electrically conductive coating being in a facially spaced relationship with respect to the second electrically conductive coating. A nonconductive spacer is positioned in between the first electrically conductive coating and the second electrically conductive coating, the nonconductive spacer having a plurality of openings aligning with portions of the first conductive grid and said second conductive grid. A plurality of first concentrators and second concentrators depend upwardly from a reaction surface, the plurality of first concentrators maintaining the second plurality of concentrators in a facing spaced relationship with respect to the membrane horn switch, the plurality of second concentrators selectively communicating portions of the first conductive grid and second conductive grid, when a force is applied to the horn switch assembly.
