Also...make sure the BLACK wire from the turn signal switch to the horn relay is not grounding in the column...this happens sometimes when replacing a turn signal switch if one is not careful threading the T/S harness through the column.

It's a 71. The cancelling cam is brand new and it looks just the same as the old one, except not worn out. My thinking is that this leaves the turn signal switch (with the copper button) or a short. Before I spend money on the new T/S switch, I should check for a short. Electrical is not exactly my forte, so if anyone can tell me how to check for a short, I'd really appreciate it...
