1936 Terraplane horn

Where can I get a diagram of the horn parts in the steering wheel? My horn works with a jumper wire but not with the horn button. I have either put it together wrong or a part is missing.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Ken,
The attached is from the 30-39 Parts Book.  Hope this helps.

Ken,
The horn button cover unscrews to get acmes to the inner parts.  The wire has a unique terminal on the end.  I removed my original wire and shipped it to Rhode Island Wiring.  It returned with the original unique terminal on the end.  The other end had no terminal so it could be feed down the steering shaft.  I made a teflon shim as the contact spring had relaxed over the years and would make contact with the outer ring when I screwed the horn button cover back on.

Thanks for the pictures. I can see that I need the teflon ring to hold the wire in place. I have a good spring and wire but I put the spring in upside down.
