I assume there is supposed to be a ground wire in the steering wheel column and power for the horn. Mine does not have the ground wire. I suspect it was a hastily reassembled job. I have a temp solution but what is the way they used to be from the factory? How much disassembly and fishing do I have to do to get it in there? I have a Momo steering wheel, not stock.

You need this ground ring for the Momo steering wheel:

It is captured in between the Mom wheel and adapter. The hot wire from the horn goes to one terminal on the horn button, and a wire goes from the other terminal on the horn button to this ground ring.

Otherwise you can ground the wire to some other place within the adapter.

This should do the trick, thanks for the tip.
