horn keeps beeping of own accord

Post by lhd »

I changed the support bush in the steering column yesterday (plastic bush) due to some play, and the horn now keeps going off when doing tight turns. :evil:
Any ideas as to what the problem is? I have dimantled and refitted it again today and it's still doing it,driving me mad it is. I'm off to Coney farm tomorrow and am going to need my horn, so I can't disconnect it.. :cry:

Had this with mine recently, after changing back to a standard wheel, I just reshaped the spring contact down so it wasn't quite so under tension onto the wheel...seemed to cure mine... Maybe the bush is slightly deeper than your worn one??
