one honking Stang

btw I fixed mine with small pieces of this cushioning material they use in cheap mattresses. can't explain it anymore as it was some 9 mths ago but as you take the center of the steering wheel apart you will figure it out. 20 minutes max.

Wolf, do you think you could take one of the images I uploaded and edit it or draw where exactly you put the cushioning material? Thanks.

All right, I've attached two pictures of my steering wheel with the horn button off. Where exactly does the foam or cotton balls go? What about the wheel spring that's supposed to be visible when you take the horn button off?

chris, the piece that you removed (wheel1 is the picture name) has to come apart. the pads are inside there. i have only done it to my escort (and thats back 7 years ago.... damn time flies ) but in that one i had to slip the rubber cover off the plastic horn button.... if that makes any sense lol

it looks like yours is the same way.

Ahhhh exactly what I was looking for, thanks jadedinpa! I'm gonna go check it out now.

Yeah, what he said. I'm not sure what you're talking about either- and my wife has been without a horn since her '89 woke us up at 2am a few months ago. I'd love to fix it, there isn't a horn pad in a junkyard for 100 miles from here.

Ah! Damn I type slow. I'll try it- thanks!

Woohoo, I took that piece apart and put some paper towel between the pads, then spent about half an hour trying to get the thing back together, lol. But when I reconnected the horn, it worked! Thanks to everyone... StangNet rocks!

could always just replace it with a Grant. Fixes EVERYTHING.
