Re: Horn
On a closed car, remove the bolts holding the steering column to the frame and to the gas tank and tilt the steering column down.
If the wire to the horn button is grounded, as described above, and you do not want to fix it by removing the horn button rod, you can run a temporary wire to a push button inside the cab somewhere that you can press to blow the horn. Run the other side of the push button to a good ground connection. You can epoxy a strong magnet to the back side of the push button so that you can mount it anywhere without drilling any holes. The push buttons for door bells work great. Some are lighted so that you can see the button at night. Place a piece of material behind the magnet so that it does not scratch the paint.
The complete electrical system is shown here, along with lots of information on all things electrical for the Model A: https://www.mafca.com/downloads/Semi...ex%20Janke.pdf
