Intermittent Horn Problem on GT6 Mk3

Despite adding several earths to my steering column and cleaning or replacing the various wiper rings and sprung loaded contacts in the hub under the horn push, I still have a horn that only operates intermittently.

From an illustrated parts list I have noticed this clip which my car does not have.  Should my car have this clip fitted in the steering wheel hub and could it's absence be the cause of my problem ?

Yes & Yes

The earthing of the Horn on the Small Chassis Triumphs is problematic to say the least?

The Horn Push retainer will provide an earth connection between the central Triumph logo horn push and the splined steering shaft via the Steering wheel retaining Nut.

Other common problem area's are the brass slip ring wire connection and the earth link on the Steering UJ in the Engine bay.
