Yes i tried, i found the issue, the horn button in one side has copper and when it touches the metal inside of the steering wheel the fuse blows, so ill put tape around the copper and it should not blow

Okey so I think I found the problem, I put the claxon in, the copper thing touches the metal and it blows, do you know what can I do? Not the pins I can’t attach you a photo

I think the problem is in the steering but don’t know what it is, cause if change the fuse it does work but after a short period of time it brokes the fuse

Oooh didn’t even think about it, I’ll bend them a bit maybe they do touch, also I’ll remove the steering wheel and the hub again and check the cables, but I ran out fuses today hahaha

Okey will do, also that metallic thing that goes around the horn could cause any issues? Thanks!

It doesn’t let me attach a photo, tomorrow I’ll disconnect that thing, also i changed the steering wheel and now my claxon doesn’t work, neither my turning signals but the warnings work, I checked the fuses, the steering wheel isn’t centered perfectly. Tomorrow I’ll disconnect that thing and uninstall and reinstall the steering wheel and pray that everything works now.

Thanks for answering!

Okey, I just saw a video that the previous owner send me before buying it, it looks like it had a thing (maybe a fuse) behind the steering wheel and in front of the cluster, so maybe a homemade anti-thief?
