Horn problems


After doiong a power steering conversion i cannot get my horn

to work. I traced the problem down to between the steering box

that is grounded properly and the new column that attachs to it

there must be some kind of dampener in it because the end of the

shaft and the steering box will not allow the ground to come up to the end where

the steering wheel attachs and the horn on this car needs the  column shaft to be grounded possible the column shaft is isolated inside the seering box

 will have to remove the column tubes and do some metering of the shaft its self

 

any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

problem solved, the suppler said the vibration isolator would not allow the ground to pass through it
so i put a small jumper between the 2 allen keys that hold it to the column.
and now i have a ground in the wheel !!

so if you are going to do this conversion make sure youi jump it before installing !!

much easier.

not yet, i want to make a proper juumper with closed loops, i just wanted to make sure it worked
put the column all back together and horn now works great..
thinking of painting my wheel red and white like a nova i saw
think two tone steering wheels were an option but more then likely light and dark red.
