Subject:horn ring
From:William <grateful@SWCP.COM>
Date:Fri, 14 Sep 2018 09:09:15 -0600

My horn ring on my 84 vanagon causes many embarrassing toots when driving
around.  I ordered two replacement horn rings (can't remember which VW/Vanagon mail
order company.) Both rings causes the same toots.  One of the mounting screws
holding down the steering column switches is stripped.  It has been stripped
for several years.  (I assume the previous owner may have caused this.)
It is not obvious to me that the stripped machine screw is causing this problem.
Any ideas how to fix the phantom horn?

All suggestions are welcome!
