    Remove horn button.. where do the 2 wires go?

    I'm having a slight issue with my horn. It works, but I'm just slightly confused as to where the
    two (brown) wires attach to inside the steering wheel horn area. I know one of them goes to
    the back of the disc with the copper (see photo). The other is the ground (touch anything metal
    and the horn honks).

    Does anyone have a nice photo of where that ground wire attaches? I can seem to figure out what
    is probably VERY simple.

    Whichever one operates horn when grounded attach to the bakelite disc, the other grounds at the slotted screw at the 4:00 position. Looks like in the photo that screw is tightened, don't know how you got that ring connector off without removing the screw?

    4 o'clock or 7 o'clock? I guess it doesn't matter... as they both will do the same. ?

    It needs to go against one of the screws that touch metal, not the empty one in the plastic housing,,,,then yes, 4 or 7 doesn't matter.

    related question for a LeCarra wheel - it has a wire coming from the horn button - where do I attach that?

    (the PO of the LeCarra had a bullet connector on it, so I need something else but not sure what or where it goes...)
