Re: 526 Runabout horn

On my 533, the horn button goes thru the center of the steering column.

6V DC power is always applied to the horn.
When the horn wire is grounded, it makes the horn function.
If your wire, which is in the center of the steering column is shorted accidentally, or intentionally by pushing the horn button, it makes the ground contact and the horn activates.

Easiest way to stop the horn is to disconnect one of the two wires that are connected to the horn. I would put a wire on the disconnected wire.
