Ice White Socks 0 Posted May 28, 2005 But enough about my personal problems :) Decided to give the old Corrado a good clean inside today- got a cloth snagged and have managed to break off the dash-side springy contact that pushes onto the horn ring (behind the back of the wheel) :( Has anyone else ever managed to be this stupid? Does anyone know if the contact is replaceable? am I going to need to take it to a garage to get the wheel off or can I do it myself? Cheers Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted May 28, 2005 Prise centre cover off. Remove wheel - Think it's a 24 mil socket from memory and you'll need a bit of an extension to get at it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishill 0 Posted May 28, 2005 take the centre cover off the steering wheel and you'll see a large nut in the middle, undo that and the wheel comes free, easy really! the nuts a big un though. as for the contact, you could bodge a fix with any old bit of metal to make contact i expect, a paperclip or something...as a temporary measure obviously edit - :( beat me to it tom!

Ice White Socks 0 Posted May 28, 2005 OK Cheers- That covers the wheel off bit- anyone know if the springy contact bit is replaceable and if so- how easy to fit. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted September 21, 2005 I fixed a wheel with a broken contact by sliding a double male spade connector (out of a box of halfords assorted connectors) behind the flat brass plate and soldered it for good measure, It's been fine for the past 3 years...
