Steve, I've done the continuity test, 1.6 ohms between the positive tab and the far side of the contact.

The only thing I haven't done is install the thin paper gaskets.

Great question, sir. What's happening at this point is that the bar on the diaphragm is not opening the contacts. Before you disassemble, connect your ohmmeter to the horn and tighten the volume screw slowly until the resistance goes up. Then back it down some. Test again and see if the bar can open the contacts.

I used Steve's info to rebuild mine with the eBay kit from the guy in Canada.  I don't like those sticky gaskets.  The green is off, but it's what I had.  Individually they sound okay, but I need to hook the pair up together and fine tune, and drive my neighbors nuts.
