WIRING:
USING BOATS FACTORY HORN SYSTEM (TWO WIRE SYSTEM) Fig. 5
WARNING: You are required to use the relay supplied with this horn kit to protect the factory horn button
switch and wiring. The original factory horn draws less amperage and the relay will ensure that the horn works
reliably and will protect the factory horn system.
13. Remove the two (2) wires connected
to factory horn.
14. Connect relay terminal 85 to one of
the factory horn wires. Note: It does not
make a difference which factory wire is
connected to terminal 85.
15. Connect relay terminal 86 to the
other factory horn wire.
16. Connect relay terminal 30 to
positive (+) 12-volts such as the battery,
alternator or fuse block. Use 16-gauge
or heavier wire.
WARNING: The 20-amp
inline fuse provided must be used and
connected directly to the power source.
17. Connect relay terminal 87 to the
compressor’s positive (+) terminal. Use not less than 16-gauge wire.
18. Connect the compressor’s negative (-) terminal to boat’s negative (-) battery post or any clean metal
negative surface. Use not less than 16-gauge wire.
