[TR] horn tooting.........

[Joe Curry]

I had a similar problem in my Mk1 Spit a few years back.   It turned out to
be in the electrics at the steering wheel.  The turn signal siring and the
horn wiring were getting too close together as I turned.

I don't know if this will help you but I had a similar experience a few
years ago and I traced it back to the copper contact rod. I have an after
market wheel and hub so YMMV....... But it's worth taking a look. Here's the

I completed some work on my tr-6 which required moving the rack and pinion
forward approx. 1/2 inch or so.  I put it back and have it all tightened up
however now my horn toots when I turn the steering wheel.  I'm thinking It's
possible when I moved the rack back I also pushed the steering rod up toward
the steering wheel making contact there?  Just wondering.
