horn problem..

[Jarred]

Hi guys. Wanting a bit of help please. Car is an 85 80 (sport )

This used to be an intermittent problem but now it's happening more and more.

Whenever I turn right, the horn beeps, and quite often when I hit the indicator (to turn right) the horn will be too.

This is really starting to annoy me? Any one got any ideas? (besides just disconnect the horn)

Thanks guys.

Mate the horm works on an earth return so something is a miss in the horn pad or the contact ring on the indicator stock.
Take the wheel off (24mm nut) . The contact on the stock switch behind the wheel isnt sitting on the steering wheel properly by the sounds. Have you had the wheel off??????

Nope havn't had the wheel off.

I was hoping I wouldn't have too, (cause I hadn't done it before) but looks like I might have too. Will look over the weekend.

Thanks Jmac

took my wheel off today (finally) and then put it back on basically..

I had a look at a few things, but wasn't to know wether it was meant to be or not, so I cut my losses and chucked the wheel back on.

Took it for a quick drive round the block, and nothing beeped when it shouldn't have.

So who knows. I'll write again if I have any more issues with it.
