The problem is probably in the horn button. If the little spring contact
gets turned a little, no horn.
You may have a bad ground. There are several ground straps on the steering
column transversing rubber U-joints, they need to be connected.
Check your horn by jumpering from the battery to the terminal on the horn.
The return is Chassis.

Subject: Testing horn.
The horn on my '71 spit stopped working a couple of months ago and I need to
get it tooting for state inspection. The two horns now installed on the car
are pretty old and nasty looking. I have two horns that are much nicer that
came as spares.
Is there an easy way to make sure the newer horns work before I install
them?
I would hate to confuse the matter by installing two bad horns AND have
another problem to diagnose as well.
Thanks
Steve M
