Re: turn signal wiring HELP
only 1 wire operates the horn, its blue with gold stripe.
there are a total of 7 wires
i do not have a pic of the 63 switch and wires, only a 61-62 all metal type however the wire colors are the same
in the pic you can see the horn contact on the left side

Re: turn signal wiring HELP
If you got the switch from NPD that has 2 horn contacts, use the one that lines up with the contact ring on your steering wheel. It will be in the same place as the old contact on the old signal cam assembly. Don't worry about the other one.

Re: turn signal wiring HELP
The blue wire grounds the horn relay and the relay powers the horn. The blue wire will connect to the horn relay having traveled from the horn button to the relay up by the battery box.
