Horn wiring in steering wheel

[LukeJ]

Guys,

Looks like I'm missing a wire that connects into the steering wheels to connect the horn up.
i currently have a wire with a red plastic tubular piece of plastic, but looks like I'm missing a clip perhaps on the end?
Was on a OMP steering wheel so cannot work out what I'm missing.

Pluged and fiddled with air bag but light is still on also, any particular faults it could be?
Second hand wheel from eBay.

Pictures are going to be needed to sort this out.

horn has a connector block on the end. Red and black wires going to it if I remember correctly

 

[LukeJ]

Right there is only one wire for the horn - ill try grab some photos soon

 

[LukeJ]

- this is the horn wire attached guys, any ideas?

 

[LukeJ]

Anyone seen this before??

looks like u need to run a wire from that red crimp to the connector.....

Your missing a wire as there should be 2 coming from the snap ring both then go on the gray connector to the top left of your pic

 

[LukeJ]

Yeah that's what I thought - should I run a red & black from the crimp, or split the wire into to and wire that way. I'm putting the OMP steering wheel back on as I'm having trouble with the airbag lights anyway so ill just resistor them.
Or is there a connecter I plug into the red crimp for the block on the steering wheel?

If you have a look at one of the below picture you will be able to see which plugs you are missing. You're completely missing the bottom right grey plug. It's probably easiest if you just get a new squib unless you can salvage the connector from a broken one and solder them on. Fairly easy and I've done it before. You are definitely missing the red wire though.

 

[LukeJ]

Is the bottom left the horn wires?
I'm guessing it's easier to see what's going on if I take the cowling off and see, is that picture the front or back of the squib?

 

[GrahamS]

No the bottom right grey plug. The bottom left is only used if you have a horn button on the end of the indicator stalk.

 

[LukeJ]

Right ok - I'm going to have to pull it all out and look what's going on really.... No idea why there's only one wire really, only thing I can think of is thAt the wire I can see is not actually the horn wires I'm after.

 

[GrahamS]

you can solder the wires onto the connection point with ease. Seems like the horn was previously wired in incorrectly.

This'll do you http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-C...rParts_SM&fits=Model:Clio&hash=item233970f3c6. Just put your steering angle sensor on it.

Nice one thanks bud - I take it all my stalks will fit with that fine - is it a fiddly job or rather straightforward? Not taken one apart on a clio before.

 

[GrahamS]

2 t10 torx screws for each stalk, then they slide out. You'll see what I mean when you have it apart. Should take no longer than 20 minutes to change a squib.

There's a zinc plated band which holds the squib to the steering column.

Cheers mate ill give it ago - no rush to be on the road anyway.
