nigelcurry Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Hi all I am fitting an original steering wheel back on my car,having removed the existing wheel I am waiting for a socket to remove the boss that was used for the existing wheel.Looking at what is within the boss there is a white wire (looks like it’s going under the big central nut poss an earth)and another white wire that is fixed to what I think is the bush.My period correct wheel came with the boss and horn push!! I know this is a big ask but can anyone advise me on what to do once I have removed the said boss as far as bits I may need and how to wire everything up please or at least guide me to a good diagram/drawing of how it all goes together thanks in anticipation nige stay safe were almost there everybody Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobH Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 The advance auto-wire diagram shows the horn-push wire as purple/black which should go to the slip-ring (item 25 on the diagram below). Could those be an addition by a previous owner?

michaelfinnis Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Hi Nige, there are some decent pictures of steering wheel and column set up here, http://bullfire.net/TR6/TR6-46/TR6-46.html ,also as Rob says there should be just a single purple/black wire to the slip ring.
