Where /how did you put your fuse? My horn switch is dead and I don't want to take off my steering wheel to replace it so I'm going to try this method thanks!

Love the channel Can't wait to see your video on replacing the oil cooler seal on a 2006 Nissan X-trail.

thats high on the priority list, if someone can supply me with the car to do, ill give it a crack, but no guarantees that the car will go back together the way it came

Thank you so much for your helpful video.

But you don’t want to let us hear the damned thing!?

Love you channel. It has god potential.. But nyes, maybe a bit more detail, like where to run the wiring in the Ranger.

thanks for the input, the reason why i didnt go into specifics is because this video is a generic video on how to install extra horns and its not specific to the ranger. On both sides of the firewall on the ranger there is large rubber grommets that you can feed cable through, in this particular case i ran the cable behind the reservoir bottle, through the grommet and it comes out just above the accelerator pedal. I hope this helps

I appreciate the video, general in nature. But I do need more specifics. You mention a relay. I have extra relays. How would that work? BTW, my main horn isn't working right now, so I am looking to set it up with a separate switch. And the fuse - how did you incorporate a (standard vehicle - or an inline/tube) fuse into the circuit? [Am guessing somewhere before the horn's positive terminals]

maybe find out why your main horn isnt working first in case its the switch in your steering wheel or something else

Why is there two wires coming off the switch?

One wire runs from the battery to the switch, the other runs from the switch to the horns. Basically it’s one long wire from the battery to the horns with a switch in the middle to decide when the horn receives power

just put some temp wires on them, touch them directly on the battery terminals and see if they work , that will give you an idea of which way they go

Great video, but your intro music is about 5x the volume of your voice, and nearly blew my eardrums out after I turned up my volume to hear you.

Suzuki Samurai's, even stock horns benefit from a simple $5.00 automotive relay makes all the difference

Whoa whoa whoa what’s up with that switch mount lol

I did a stand alone system and it keeps blowing the fuse what do I do

make sure that your fuse and wiring is rated for the product you are using

Where did you go in the car with the wiring.

Hello, on the schematic, we see a fuse between the battery and switch… but dont see or hear on the video and thats my biggest question… if you can assist, thanks

Why not just use the power from the original horn ?

@TheInsightDistrict

because if the after market horns have a fault or draw too much power, it can blow the fuse for the stock horns and then neither of them will work

the ants were stressing me out

What a freaking waste of time

always use a relay no matter what
