    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

replacing horn and starter button

I was seaching and did not see anything about how to take the switches out. I dont want to break anything. I have not taken the controls off yet seemed better to search or ask first. I know horn is bad because past owner added a horn button so far away I could not hit it without taking hand from the grip, starter button requires alot of moving it around until it makes the starter turns over. I am more worried about small parts with spring shooting across floor, how to seperate the part the switchs are in.Not sure what to call it. Any ideas on how to take the housing apart. Thanks for any help.
 
Easy just two screws on bottom of units. Everythings nice and visable once their off and you'll wonder why you ever worried. Honestly the only spring is the one that returns the horn button to centre. Always handy to keep workspace clear lust incase but you'll be fine.

Just one quick note.. Disconect the battery first we don't want any 12v surprises now do we!
 
I strongly recommend you take this apart in a gallon baggie. There are some tiny parts in there (like the spring) that love to play the game "Lets visit the missing sock from the dryer" and can be a bear to track down.
