Re: getting the horn button off

With the wire completely missing from the relay I wonder if the insulation deteriorated and horn was blowing so someone cut it off or maybe if it is a new loom it was just never hooked up so tucked aside.

If there are no small screws on the back of the steering wheel hub holding the button, others will need to say how to get the horn button off. Once off there is a copper contact with a wire connected which goes straight down the steering shaft and exits at the forward end of the steering box. There should be a 6-8" length sticking out at that point where there would be an inline connector to connect it to the rest of the loom and go on to the S terminal on the relay.

It could have just become disconnected or if heat and grease caused the wire to deteriorate and was shorting at the box exit it might have also been purposely cut off there too.
