    Help identify this wire

    Ah ok… so this wire won’t connect to anything. It is only long enough that it could only connect to the parking brake handle if it existed. I’ve driven off several times with the parking brake engaged, so I’d love to upgrade to a lighted parking brake if possible. My parking brake isn’t all...

    Help identify this wire

    Thanks. I’m going have a closer look. I didn’t see a bulb for the parking brake and it doesn’t light up. Should there be a light above the release lighting the clear plastic handle?

    Help identify this wire

    I have a disconnected blue wire under the dash right next to the fuse box. I’m just trying to figure out where it goes. It’s only got enough slack to plug into the fuse box or something right next to it. I tried a random open connector on the fuse box a while back and it prevented the engine...

    So is a new blue streak coil any good then?

    I'm using the same one for the past year without issue. Would have preferred it in black though.

    Can someone ID this carburetor?

    I just rebuilt mine using parts from Mike's Carburetor. Usually you turn the mixture screws all the way in (don't overtighten), and then back out 1 1/2 turn as a basis to begin adjustment. My motor hadn't run in 30 years, and it started right up without adjustment.

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    Darn. I see that @kyle340 was selling the part a couple of years ago for $15. For Sale - Nos 62-66 horn contact ring and cable

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    Thank you for all the responses. I grabbed the spring clip with some pliers to prevent flight as I pried it up with a couple of screwdrivers. Rubber seemed ok until closer inspection revealed a small pinhole. I put some electrical tape around it for a temporary fix until I source the...

    Where can I find replacement parts like posted in the image?

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    This gasket must be shot. There is continuity here between plate and inner column. How do I remove the large “spring clip?”

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    No idea of what caused the horn issue. It wasn't blowing before I pulled the battery over 3 years ago while I've been working on the car. Only thing I've touched near the horn would be the lowering of the steering column to disconnect the coupler to service the PS gear. For this I only...

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    Thanks for the pics. It looks like I’m going to have to pull the wheel off and see where this wire is contacting the column where it shouldn’t.

    Never had the wheel off. Only dropped the column to disconnect the coupler. Yes the horn still sounds even with the connector removed.

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    I can’t just remove the wire it seems without disassembly. The wire appears to terminate with a 90 degree connector about an inch down ..

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    The terminal is not actually touching and the kink is not as bad as it appears in that picture, but the wire is already making contact with the steering column. I just don't know what I did that caused that wire to 'short' inside the column somewhere. I may run a wire outside the column to...

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    Yes original wheel. I did disconnect the horn relay to stop the horn and I can confirm that the horn switch in the steering wheel works fine when tested independently. What I’m saying is the Black wire running from the relay, through the firewall and eventually up the steering wheel column is...

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    Horn won’t quit blowing. This is the opposite problem most encounter when dealing with horn issues. I have confirmed that the wire running up the column is indeed grounded to the column without engaging the horn switch but nothing obvious is pinching the wire running up the steering column...
