horn button removal
#2
The horn button and light switch both operate from the centre of the wheel. To remove the assembly you will need to remove the light switch; this is located at the bottom of the steering box, and held in place with a 'wire bail'- simply a wire clip which you will be able to pull down. Once this is done you remove the switch by pulling it away from the bottom of the steering box. Now looking up at where the switch was you will see a fork. Get someone to hold the horn button assembly down [disconnect the battery first]. That fork is spring loaded against a retainer clip, simply push the fork up towards the cab against the spring pressure, and you should see the retainer clip. Prise the clip out, then pull off the fork and spring. Now you can extract the entire horn button/ light switch/ rod assembly, pulling it into the cab [hopefully you'll have room]. Don't bend it!!!Once removed you'll see a nut holding on the wheel. Sounds complicated I know, but it is more 'fiddly' than difficult. Good luck. Brian
