How to Remove a Horn Ring for a 1965 Ford Galaxie

Ford introduced a completely redesigned Galaxie for the 1965 model year, a design that widened the size of the already full-sized automobile. As with most Fords of the time, the '65 Galaxie was equipped with two horns mounted underneath the hood. The horns were operated by a horn ring that fit into the center of the steering wheel. Whether you need to remove the horn ring to replace it or to access the steering wheel's retaining nut, the process is straightforward.

• 1

  Locate the horn wire connector underneath the instrument panel and to the left of the steering column. The wire connector has one yellow wire and one yellow wire with a green stripe.

• 2

  Pull the two halves of the horn wire connector apart.

• 3

  Press the horn ring towards the steering wheel.

• 4

  Rotate the horn ring in a counterclockwise direction while pressing the ring towards the wheel until the ring detaches from the steering wheel.
