Well Jim you get the memory award!  I just remembering it working after
being afraid to have to figure it all out if it didn’t!
Don’t remember what I did after that...

electricals on the crate were untouched when I got it, and I couldn´t figure
out how the Horn was supposed to ground when I took it apart but I put it
together the same way and remember screaming "Oh thank God it works" when I
finally tried it once things were back together!  

IIRC, you went thru a period where your horn would sound when you turned the
wheels all the way to full lock in one direction, grounding the front axle
beam. That was discussed here, we talked about it, and you then fixed the
problem.  ;-)  

For the life of me, I'm currently unable to visualize what touched what to
make that ground.
