Have a ‘47 Chev. 3100 with a steering wheel horn button I can’t figure out.
I’m assembling it wrong or something’s warn or it’s an operator malfunction!

Not sure of assembly order. Can’t find a diagram to help. Steering wheel- spring- contact plate- nut- horn button?
I know it’s wired live and when you press the horn button the circuit is completed and horn blows.

Problem is when I put the contact plate around the steering shaft a contact is made, blowing the horn.

What am I missing????
