Failed mot, need help

[Glanza-Ben]

Me Glanza failed mot today, on number plate bulb as ones not very bright, headlight adjustment and no horn (I did try to blag that) but now I can't find my horn wiring to fit a switch I stripped the steering Column down but not a clue where it's to any one care to help with its location, Cheers

Aftermarket steering wheel? The wire for the switch would be the 1 that originally went to the steering wheel so its a case of whipping off the wheel and the wires should be there or you will see them if they have been cut.

See if you can find the horn, Usually bolted to slam panel or behind drivers side headlight,re-trace the wire back to steering mate wont be that hard..

Unless horn id gone altogether

[Glanza-Ben]

I got the horn side but the steering wheel side had vanished it was there once when I had normal steering wheel lol the original one is a plug but can't source where it goes

I'm in the same boat

I'm in the same boat

It's weird as I just unplugged the old steering wheel so god knows where it plugs back into

[StuDoc 72]

So surely the wires that you unplugged are still behind the wheel?

Just trace them back and wire it into a switch?

[Glanza-Ben]

Na they ain't there I stripped the whole lot down last night and ain't got a clue the original horn is on a white plug but can't find where that ifs into on the column I would trace it back from the front but was hoping some one could shed some light the worse case is I spend a hour putting my own wiring from horn to dash tonight

[Ep'd]

On the original steering wheel (I had the airbag type) the horn wires are built into it. So when removed the wires went with the steering wheel. Sounds weird but true!

So I think the bolts that hold the original steering wheel in place are some how earth and positive when bolted in

This is all that's there behind my plastics

But the plug for horn don't fit them but saying what your saying I think mine was similar but I've lost the ring thing that went on Aswell for the airbag

[StuDoc 72]

The ring thingis the contacts for the horn mate.

The ring thingis the contacts for the horn mate.

So how do I wire a switch into that since its a single wire plug :/

[Glanza-Ben]

All sorted now I just ran a whole new loom from front to the dash and fitted switch and a new horn now jobs a gooden, ready for another 12 months of driving now

I was just gonna say do that ^^ haha. I did that with my old GT. Used the hi/lo boost button as a horn button haha.
