I ended up pulling the old wiring out of the tube and replacing it with new=
. What I found was a bare wire on the brown wire------such that when I pu=
shed the column in it would push that bare spot up against the tube---closi=
ng the circuit and blowing the horn. All is well now.The task is a pain bu=
t really not too bad. I had to cut three of the bullets off, wrap the wire=
with a piece of wire and pill it thru. then reattach the bullets. (you do=
need another hand up above to guide it into the inner tube). I use the Fl=
an air horns and they use a relay---I had forgotten I had a horn relay inst=
alled and couldn't figure out why I got a click but no horn when I hooked i=
t all back up and tried to blow the horn-------short answer--the relay had =
quit. New relay--all is well.If you ever do this job remember that two of =
the 4 wire attachment posts are "floating" posts and will fall out when you=
remove the wire if you don't block them from behind--and THIS is bad news-=
----------you either spend tons of time trying tore-insert them ( using a f=
lat small object or you take the trafficator apart in order to get them bac=
k in---not what you want to do.Thankfully mine is back together and working=
nicely.Tom
