So to have the light on continously (yellow wire), on a boat whose battery is removed after use every time, could I just combine the yellow with the positive ?

It's very smart of you to go through all this and pass 2 red wires, + and - , instead of 1 red and 1 black. I have never thought of doing it this way.

The last large black wire, where it comes?

It would also be a good idea to have protective grommets (or similar) where the wire was routed through holes in the body. I could see these locations as a point of chafing that could cause a short.

You are very right, I’ll be re doing the wiring once I do the engine swap to make my life a little easier, and probably use some rubber bushing through all the port holes just to be safe

Do you still need to hook the aftermarket wires to oem horn?.my steering wheel with airbag in steering wheel stopped functioning and I replaced the relay. Still didn't fixed my issue

@ksmneptune

@@robertorobles6536 if you have your airbag light on and your horn doesn’t work that usually means your clock spring went bad, I unfortunately don’t have any videos of me changing one but I’m sure there’s plenty of good people who have made one to help your situation. However you can test this if take a test light and hook it to one wire coming off the horn the next wire to your ground and the last wire to your battery and when you press your horn and if it lights up that means your horns went bad, if it doesn’t then it’s your clock spring (inside the steering wheel). Hope this helps!

Is 16 gauge a good wire to use for this?

@ksmneptune

3 ай бұрын

Because it’s such a low load I felt it was the best gauge to use, HOWEVER, I am not an electrician, but you should go by the demand the appliance needs. (The higher the demand the thicker the wire)

Like the video try to connect my Air horn in my Ford ranger

Could i feed it without removing my panel?😐

Yes, but it’ll be more difficult to grab the wires in order to route them.

I'm sure there's a good reason for routing you wire to the passenger and not the driver side. Your battery is on the driver side , and you wouldn't have to cross your radiator.but since its already done, buy some heat conduit for the wire you ran and cover as much of the wire as possible. Please don't think I'm pickin on you, im lookin out for you......oh, you've got some really nice tools.

Absolutly no offense taken here, and you are correct. Off camera I had ordered some 1/4” sheathing and lined the whole bit in the frame and cut it off at exit so it doesn’t pinch. This car is also a RHD so it was easier to route the line through the harness under the driver side (RHD) footwell above the pedals, to the front of the car rather than cross the firewall. Thank you for the nice words! I’ve been collecting my tools for years, some vintage, some Amazon garbage, idk how much of them you saw in the vid, but thank you! Lol

I had no idea! Thanks for the input!

I didn't see a fuse or relay in your circuit. That momentary switch is rated for just 5 amps and most horns pull amperage up to 15 amps and need to be protected with a 15 amp fuse. Your 16 gauge wire is only rated for 7.5 amps. A future short anywhere in your circuit or if you blast the horn for more than a few seconds could burn your car down. Don't make videos to show people how to do stupid things.
