I have taken the center off the steering wheel and there doesn’t seem to be any thing for the horn. No plunger, just a wire. Looking for an illustration of some sort in order to get parts etc. I will be removing the horn itself to see if it is functional as well. Not much out there in any of the manuals referencing these. Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks.

On 72-76, Just a wire that attaches from the the turn signal cancel ring to the bat wing horn pad. The early cars had a plunger - like 911’s.

This is what I’ve got! Pulled the horn and checked continuity on the Yellow/Black and the Brown. Nothing. Next is fuse, but I don’t think the problem will be there. During my exploration on this thing I found a, what I’ll call a horn button near the odometer reset that needs some attention. I’ll have to track this down. Odd that it has a spring loaded fuse in the line. More to come on this. |

Ground that blue spade terminal with the ignition on. If the horns work you can rivet that wire to the grey metal ring since the male spade that connects to the fe spade has broken off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Connected OHM meter for continuity on the black/yellow and brown (horn). Turned on ignition and no go grounding the wire on the ring. Wiring diagram shows a relay at some point. Are the relays those behind the fuse panel?
