Horn Buttons not working.

Hello. I was wondering if anyone might have any answers to why the 2 outer horn buttons do not work in my 1984 Delta 88 Royal Brougham? The centre main section activates the horn though.

Thank you in advance.

Pull off the horn pad (screws are on the back) and you'll find that there's a problem with the wires that run from those two buttons to the cancel cam in the hub of the wheel. Likely it's popped out of the post.

Are you sure those are horn buttons? They might have some other function like radio volume or wiper speed.

Yes, they are horn buttons. There's a little horn icon embossed in the button.

Thanks guys. I will take the back off and see the wiring shortly. I will try to take some photos of the process also submit to the forum.

To look into this. All I have to do was connect wire I'm to our horn buttons to the main lead of the middle horn button and everything works perfect! Thank you for all that help.

All fixed, there was not even a single wire to the outer buttons, so I installed new wire and all works!

Thanks you.
