New information. After another cup off coffee I figured out that the horn
rim on the steering wheel grounds out on the directional signal plate. When
I tighten down the steering wheel nut the horn will blow, back off the nut
and all,is well. The brass horn ring is seated into the steering wheel. I
think I could solve the problem if I put a thin metal shim/washer to raise
the steering wheel up a slight bit? Any thoughts before I go forward?
