To bypass the clockspring for installing a horn button, you'll need to locate the wiring harness for the horn, typically found under the steering wheel. Disconnect the clockspring connector and identify the horn wire, which is usually a specific color (often yellow or green). Connect a wire directly from the horn button to the horn wire, ensuring that the circuit is completed when the button is pressed. However, be cautious, as bypassing the clockspring can disable other functions like airbag deployment, so it’s advisable to consult a professional for safety reasons.
