[T3] Horn 70 Fastback

[Dennis Stiefel]

We are getting closer to have the 70 Fastback ready for auction.  Right now
we are working on getting the horn working.  Since it's a 70 most of what I
learned on my 72 in this area is out the window. The horn it's self-works is
getting 12V+ at the horn + terminal.  When you ground the horn wire at the
group of wires coming out of the steering column underneath the horn will
sound off. But when you ground the wire coming out the center of the column
under the horn ring nothing.  What will we have to do to get to this wire
and circuit going inside this since this seems where our problem is? I
noticed a snap ring under where the steering wheel where it mounts. Look
like it holds the upper bearing in the column in place.  Is where we need to
go behind this?  The Bentley is unclear on the construction of this as I
know VW changed columns over the years while our cars were made.
