Re: steering wheel horn push mechanism, how does it work?

Diggin up a slightly older thread...

From reading the above description it seems we should be able to gently pry the horn button (part with the chevy symbol) away from the clip to gain access to the horn wiring and the nut that holds the steering wheel to the column. Is that the case, I just don't want to break anything by force.

Thanks

You are correct, you will not see any horn wire after the cap comes off. It is a single wire which is attached the under side of the contact plunger, from there it runs about a foot down the column and exits through an oval hole with a clamp attached. If you pull the contact plunger up you will see the wire. All the parts are available. You will see the plunger after you remove the nut and contact plate.
