Driving my 63 one day and my horn starts to blow. Disconnected horn and it stopped.
Usually that’s caused by a short in the column near the upper bearing.
Next day my battery is dead.
Charged battery again but when I checked, I found a 10V voltage drop at the negative battery terminal. The column is completely out of the truck but the 10V drain is still there.
What items should I check first?
Alternator?
Horn relay? (It’s only 6 months old)
Suggestions?
Key ignition switch?
All the lights work properly. No HEI in this truck.
Thanks in advance for your ideas.
