went to put on my mugello wheel but couldnt figure how to hook up the horn. on the back of the stock wheel there are 3 brass rings that come into contact w/ 3 brass "nubs" on the colum and the cruis and horn is wired to the back of the brass rings on the wheel. what i think from looking at it is one is a power and ground?, another for the cruise accel and the other for the decel. anyway im just not sure and i messed w/ it and didnt come up w/ anything. the buttons on the sparco wheel just have a pos coming out of em and i know there has to be a ground on it. anyway if i had a 240 manual it would aelp but i havent found one at any stores, just the ones on cd on ebay. can someone shead some light on it. thansk

you are going to have to contact the pins in order for your wheel to spin. maybe you are missing a piece, does the spline line up?. i dont see how a wire could work, you need a plate with dual or triple contact patches

i figured it out, i didnt have the hub all the way down onto the pins. but i think i got it now anyway. the wheel is small too, might want to get a different one.

most won't bolt totally flush
that is why they usually have a rubber trim ring that fills the gap as long as the horn works bolt it up and use it
