I've been replacing under hood elec components on my 63 Valiant; This is one firewall connector that I can't identify...( the wiring diagram is of no help). There are two connection points... One with a brown/green wires and one black wire. Its right above the brake master cylinder. Any help?

Could it be the horn relay? Horn relay should have three connections. Possible one connection broken off? Horn relay has violet wire to starter relay battery connection. Dark green to horn(s). Black to bulkhead connector

Looks like the horn relay and I think they only have 2 wires/connectors. Needs to be grounded.

I am also thinking the horn relay, but the factory service manual wireing diagram shows the 3 wires. I really don't see the relay working if it is electrically grounded, as the black wire going to the bulkhead connector is the wire that gets grounded by the horn button.

This should be the correct horn relay

The picture shows three wires. That is the horn relay.
