So you've tried and pried and now you want to know what to do? No sweat, follow along and we'll replace the horn button assembly on this 1948 Chevy Stylemaster.

Thanks for the video; short & sweet but with knowledge & ingenuity. Best part is that it's free like so many other learned treasures over the years. The end message says a lot. Many of our founding fathers said basically the same thing: if we forget & move away from our Christian values this nation will not hold together. Bad characters, corrupt morals, injustice, etc., etc., moves in -- just what is happening today. Until next time, take care, stay safe, & keep looking up. By the way, next time, disengage the battery. It's not that I do not like horns (I have one on my bicycle), I've just heard too many of them lately for some reason.

Informative video!!! Unfortunately, most of those parts are missing from my car ('47 Fleetmaster), but interesting nonetheless. I think the wire from the relay coming up thru the column terminates in a slip ring on the end of the steering column, and unfortunately mine is shorted to ground. With those 2 strikes, I decided to slap an old-timey looking horn button on the column and let it go for now. Humorous story: I had a '71 CJ-5 in the 1980's, and it had an insulated brass cup in the center of the steering wheel. A brass plate forced away by a spring resided in the rubbery horn button, and pressing it down grounded the brass cup to energize the relay and blow the horn. After a few rains with no top on the Jeep, the cup filled with enough water to contact the brass disc. Over a period of time, electrolysis took place, and green corrosion sprouted and grew, conducting enough current from the cup to the disc to energize the relay and blow the horn. In the middle of the night! I just knew someone was out there, and I'm sure I had some firepower with me when I went out. No one in sight! Quite a scare, though.....

on't know if the Fleet and Style Masters are identical but for the Fleetmaster (horn ring) - If the horn wire needs replacing you have to remove the upper mast bearing and solder a new wire to a new bearing

Great job my friend! Perhaps I should do one with my 48 Chevy’s horn ring whenever I get around to replacing it. It mounts behind the steering wheel instead of in front like a button does.

sorry I did not but with a steering wheel puller it is very easy to do.

Sorry, but the steerribg wheel it's not the original. Probably from the Chevy truck.

It's correct for the Stylemaster which was the cheaper car option. The Fleetmaster and Fleetline had fancier ones.
