Steering Columns / Re: Horn honks when hooking up to battery
« Last post by MY1978 on May 09, 2026, 09:36:05 am »
OK bd, I took every thing down to turn signal, connected the battery and depressed the button about 10 times.  Nothing.
I have replaced the relay, just to be on the safe side.  I have broken this down and reassembled multiple times and it is when the locking plate is in place that the horn blows.

Now, I also ordered a new cancelling cam.  It has a protector? on the top of it - my other one did not and I do not think the original had it.  I have not removed it.  Before I go further, please look at these pictures.  The new c-cam pin is much longer than the old one and when depressed is still sticking up a little. 

Question now, before I start reassembling is - should I cut the pin down to the same length as the old one?

Thanks for all your help.

Why? The original pieces are also designed to deflect water draining from the cowl so it doesn't cascade into the cab.

The real deal!  8)

That's why I love whitey. It's mechanically mint, cosmetically not but I'll drive it anywhere and not worry about it. When I drive my 74 I'm constantly worried about some other idiot or it getting biffed. I just enjoy it.

Morning All,

Anyone know anyone out there that is selling a kick panel vent delete kit? I want to seal up the opening and just put a plastic piece over it.
Thanks for the help.

Since I sold my truck, I've been driving around in my imagination, so every trip is absolutely perfect.  And, there's no maintenance or repairs!  What more could you ask for?   8) ;D

OG Star Wars FTW Harmy's Despecialized versions are a great way to watch the unclucked versions. I remember going to see the re-releases and being like, why? Then the prequels and feeling like my life's blood had been drained. Now the Disney era...

It's like our trucks, they got it right for a certain period of time and can never do better.

Here comes the pollen, I've been driving mighty whitey (my patina truck) because the weather here has been crap.

The time of the year does not matter to me. I drive my truck 2-3 times a week unless of course it is icy.  8)

Are the housings flat across the front or curved like the H6024?
