My 67 Dart's horns have not worked since I picked it up. Yesterday I decided to tackle the issue. I cut a few lengths of wire to use as jumpers/grounding and removed the switch off of the firewall. Good news is positive wire to both horns shows they work. I at first thought that maybe it was a bad relay or horn switch in the wheel. Disconnected the ground and used a jumper wire to the fender for a ground and got nothing. Used the jumper wire on the block for ground and got nothing. Jumped the two positive terminals and horns sounded. Ok easy enough, its a bad switch. Got a new one from Napa hooked it all up and still nothing. For some reason I thought to take a jumper wire from the ground terminal on the switch to the negative battery post and the horns sounded on both the new relay and the old. I am concerned that I have a grounding issue with the car. I have the slant in it and have not been able to locate a grounding strap for the motor. I see the one for the trans. The car has no dash lights, no high beam indicator when on, no fuel gauge, and no temp gauge. The headlights, tail lights, turn signals, and flashers all work. Any thoughts???
