[urq] What the hell?

[Tony Lum]

Hey all-

I was troubleshooting why my horns aren't working anymore on the ur-q and 
have discovered that the splined steering shaft on which the steering wheel 
is mounted is now longer grounded to the chassis!  Its grounded only when 
the steering column is locked.  Naturally this makes the horn button 
useless.  The wiring and relay are good-if I ground the horn button wire 
directly to the chassis with the key on, the horns work perfectly.  The 
horn button (which checks good) switches the horn contact to the wheel 
adapter (MOMO) which is bolted to the steering shaft.  I always thought 
that the shaft would get grounded by the support bearings but this is no 
longer the case.

Am I missing something here?  Anybody run into this before?
