gen light/horn problems

I replaced steering column and since then gen light glows dim, Horn did not work with old column and and is now barely audible. I replaced voltage regulator and battery. Alternator checked out as working and system shows its charging. After the cart is driven for a while won't start. Battery was fully charged before I put the car away for the winter. Tried starting it and battery is drained.

Sounds like you have a dead short, check everything in your column and every thing else you worked on.

I only worked on the column and replaced ignition switch. Thanks for responding.
