Any 69 owners out there to check something?

I had some electrical gremlins with the horn / key buzzer while installing the tilt column but have since figured it out.. I think. I was able to get hands on a 1969 tilt column.. dated and has the square shaped perch where "lock" is cast. Anyways, horn and key buzzer are now working. I wanted to confirm a funtion of the system as I have never done this prior to the installation. I would like to know what happens when:

1) Key is fully inserted into ignition
2) Door is open and buzzer is activley buzzing

What do you hear when you try to blow the horns while door is open and buzzer is buzzing?

Thanks Joe.. I get like an interupted kinda buzzer sound from relay with no horn. Both are on same relay so Im hoping that is a normal function

I checked mine & the key buzzer & the horns will work together. On short toots, you hear both. Long horn blow, the horns drown out the key buzzer so I'm not 100% sure.....Joe

I've never even right about trying it out, but is it fixed?

Seems to be in order. Like I said on phone Dave.. I would consider myself quite experienced now on taking apart and reassembling of turn signal switch. I came across an excellent document published by Saginaw that troubleshoots the key buzzer and horn mechanisms.
