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.

On my Momo installations I have a ground wire with a spade at the back of the button and about a 2" section of stripped wire at the other end sandwiched between the adapter base and the washer below the nut holding the adapter on. The other wire comes from the stock contact ring that touches the finger on the turn signal switch assembly. If you're missing the contact ring it likely won't work at all.

This is similar to what the PO had done.
