[Spridgets] Horn wiring

[Dean Hedin]

If it's the Bugeye stock horn then the problem is usually up at the horn
switch/brush/ring on the steering wheel.  It's easy to get a short up there,
thus causing the horn to go into the on condition.

Disconnect the horn and re-test on the bench and make sure it's OK.
If not then you need to re-adjust the points in the horn.

Then go troubleshoot the horn button/brush/wiper etc... up at the wheel.
Usually the brass wiper on the plinth shorts to the inside of the wheel.

I'm having bad luck with wiring a horn. The horn has the 4 spade connectors
on
two separate points on the horn. Before mounting it I tested it and it
worked.
After mounting I again used one wire to each of two separate " V "
connections. I reconnected the battery and the horn sounded without using
the
switch then would not work again. Am I screwing this up?
