I have been fixing all of the neglected items on my 84 step side.
One of the first things I did was fix the horn. I had to rebuild my tilt because of the loose bolts. While I had it apart I installed all of the missing horn button components in the wheel. After I got everything back together it still didn't work. Bad fuse. Replace that and all is well.
That was over a month ago. It has been working fine ever since. Last Friday I went for a drive to Wally World. I pulled up to a four way stop. Heading straight. Hit the gas and the Horn sticks on. So not knowing where the horn relay was at the time I had to stop and reach through the grill and pull the horn wires.
Got home checked the horn wires with a multi meter, No power. Checked the horn relay and it works fine. The relay is clear so I can see the contacts work when I press the horn button.
My next step is to pull the steering wheel and remove the turn signal assembly and make sure none of the wires are grounding out. I pulled the horn button and that all looks good . Anyone else had a problem like this? Any ideas what else to check? It has to be a ground in the relay system.
