Thanks. So things are pretty clean in the column. Just a small amount of grime at the bottom just above gearbox. Bearing was ok to start with and there is a little bit of play in steering wheel going down the road so I think for now I’m going to leave it alone. Maybe some boring winter I can pull column off another day. My main goal was to get the bearing out and wire replaced, get steering wheel off and back on with new horn button assembly on. Then I can work on the horn itself. Spring is here. One good rain to get rid of any leftover salt and my seat is being recovered and should be done soon. Then I can cruise around.
There was a spring under steering wheel and the correct one above it under horn button. I think bottom one was placed by accident. I don’t really see a purpose for that. So I will leave that out. Looking at pictures of horn assemblies I don’t see 2 springs same size like it was.
