Re: [T3] horn won't stop


<x-charset iso-8859-1>You changed the beam and ended up squashing the horn's
ground wire to the chassis. 

One wire comes from your fuse block and the other comes from
the center of the steering column all the way down to the other side,
next to the beam just above the steering box , it should be the only
wire there that eventually is connected to the horn's ground connection.
The horn itself always has a 'hot" or positive wire that is on all of 
the time when the key is turned. 

The ground needed for the horn is under the horn ring on the steering 
column . When you push the the ring you short the horn's ground wire
to chassis ground (minus side of the battery) and your horn beeps.

In your case, the  ground wire is being caught somewhere , it should
be easy to spot, just follow the wire that comes out the bottom of the 
steering  column.
