In my rush to install this wheel I believe I mistakenly connected the horn lead to this spade. If I jump this spade or the ring it is affixed to then the horn works. I saw no way for the horn button to connect w/ ground so I looked in the PET. Referencing PET Grp 4, pg 001, illustration 403-05, fig #28: I believe I am missing the contact #914 347 831 00 and that it should go into the same hole as the wire comes thru. Am I correct or full of (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) ? TIA, kent

the wire connects to the contact ring at the base of the steering wheel hub. it goes thru the hole in the wheel. it does not route thru the hole in the metal ring as yuo show it. your wire is a bit too long and has been repaired with a crimp. I recomend that you remove the wheel. remove the horn contact ring (3 screws). replace the wire with a 6" piece of stranded 18 AWG wire. run wire thru hole in wheel hub. re-install teh horn contact ring. add spade to connect to horn button.
