  • In this video I install a discover why the horn does not work and what it takes to fix it. This was an easy fix, but it turns out that the whole turn signal wiring harness needs to be replaced to replace the horn contacts inside the steering column.

    Thanks for the video and Nice Car! May I suggest a time-saving trick for threading the new wires down inside the column?

    Great video Andy. I found myself cheering for you, especially after that tool broke. The outtakes cracked me up!

    This is great. The previous owner of my '66 rigged a little button below the dash that honks the horn. While I hate messing with wiring, I'll order a new turn signal switch and give this a try.

    Thanks for the video. I also have a '66 so your videos are perfect for the repairs and upgrades I want to make. I am not that familiar with Ford wiring connectors so your tip about removing the individual wire conductors was most useful. I am not sure if my connectors are different from yours but I got the impression from your video that there was a single tab/button to push which would release all of the conductors. Perhaps I misunderstood. In any case, I found that each conductor had a minuscule tab that needed to be depressed in order to release the conductors. Otherwise your video was great as always. I particularly appreciate the upbeat attitude in your voice. It makes each job much more approachable.

    Hey Andy another good video. I've been pulling my hair out trying to determine what's wrong with my horn. I just replaced my steering wheel with a CJ model similar to yours, and at the same time I replaced the horn/turn signal switch assembly because the old one had a broken return cam.

    Yeah I have same setup as you, and horn loud jumping wires at horn but I guessing contacts wore down just hair short of contact. Andy what does putting adapter in Key down do, seen no slot or something to mount onto?

    Ok!! Love the video! We are working on my 16 year olds mustang. We went to change the turn signal harness and wires and we couldn’t undo the connectors from the turn signal and the wiring harness. After a few hours of pulling and twisting, I finally got it. It had shorted and the yellow wire had melted in the connector. Then I realized the yellow wire behind it had been melted and pulled back… I ordered new male and female wire connectors in case I have to replace. What should I do? Do you know what the yellow wire goes to? Horn? Lights? Now I’m lost. I cannot find the wire harness connector either… please some advice would be helpful!!

    Well I got my car today and a few things going on with it that I’m gonna have to definitely get my hands dirty right away I guess that’s why I’m looking at your horn not working video because I’m putting a different steering wheel on it probably tomorrow no courtesy light back up lights aren’t working probably the only thing that’s really concerning me right now is the doors don’t lock so they have to fix those

    Great topic, but get rid of the obnoxious, disruptive music!
