Does anyone know how the steering column is earthed? Is it just via the steering uj's to the rack? I have an intermittent fault where the horn doesn't work. It is definately lack of earth to the column Any clues guys?
Hi Steve, If I set the steering wheel up to a point where the horn doesn;t work then connect the wire from the horn button to the hand brake it works, if I short the wire to the column then it doesn't, cheers, John.
I've had the wheel off twice and cleaned the slipring, the spring-loaded contact to the slipring and the wire attached to it are making good contact, it's definately the column sometimes not earthing, I am puzzled.
If I run the wire from the horn button to the wheel or the column it doesn't work, if I run the wire to the handbrake its fine. It's an intermittent fault so its hard to pin down.
