...that is the question. I have installed new horn on 60 BE. Sometimes, if she feels like it, she honks. Sometimes, when I make a sharp left turn, she honks. Is this how the horn is originally designed...sort of unpredictable...like the female gender? Where should start?

horn push completes ground through the brush under the push, to the slip ring, down the steering colum, any flaky ground along the way, not work so good, as I understand it, on my MK1 Midget, I just reconstructed the horn push set up with an aftermarket wheel, after getting rid of a flaky ground (at the connection between slip ring and grounding wire behind dash in my case) all is great
