Signal/horn ???
Ok guys here's the symptom.When I turn a corner the Horn blows intermittently.
My turn signal switch is worn and needs replacing but I don't know if that will cause the problem I'm having. Also I can't seem to find any diagrams of the horn/turn signal assembly does anyone have one they can send me? I want to get this taken care of so I can put the horn button,bellville spring and horn cup back in.I'm driving without the horn right now so I don't embarass myself by people thinking I'm honking at the little old lady in the Burke.

theres supposed to be a plastic turn signal cam with a plastic pillar,,,inside that pillar is a spring with what sorta looks like a small ball bearing,,,,that supplys the ground for your horn when you press the horn button,,,,,sounds like it is cracked or broken allowing the horn to ground out as you turn the wheel,,,,,,,,,im trying to get my scanner to work so i can send you a diagram.....jeff...........******* anyone have a scanner and an original chevy service manual,,,,could you scan fig#19 under steering, section#9..mines a 71 buttttt,i cant get my scanner to "flippin" work

Is the turn signal lever kinda loose? I have seen quie a few trucks come through the shop (Guman trucks used this column for many years as did heavy C/40 Gm trucks and busses) that have loose levers. The lever grounds out on the horn mechanics and honks the horn.

yes, simply put, a worn turn signal switch and contact plate, number 31 I believe on the diagram, will cause the horn to honk intermittently

Thanks guys.I figured I needed to replace the horn and turn signal stuff to get it right.I had a pic from Haynes and thought that was the problem.I just like to have some backup on my diagnosis before I spend the hard earned $$$ for parts.
