How Do u you install the stock horn?

[Klint]

Alright, my 00 Celica GT-S Doesn't have a horn... once i recieve my horn from a member here how would i hook it up? Where do the wires go to ? Would any one have a picture of that? If i press my horn switch on the steering wheel ( regular car press down ) i can hear my solenoid clicking. But I don't know where to look for to find the wire to connect to the horn itself. Any insight?

2 horns - 1 high, 1 low
Single wire connection to each. Should be pretty straightforward.

i just bought a horn from a member here, and it came today. It has a single wire connector but i just dont know where to find the power wire as it came stock .

I'm looking at the 2002 electrical manual (mines 2000 though)

it shows
Horn (high)
Horn (low)




Horn

all my horn has is a connector with two wires coming out of it.. but it seems that the wires coming from the relay is cut after the juntion connecter...
I have my silver 2001 gts parked right next to it so i'm trying to go back and fourth and see where they go.

ohhh i see what you mean about two horns.. i just saw both of them on my silver car.

My red one has NO horns whatso ever and it looks like the wires have been cut. I just bought a single celica horn and it came with two wires on the connector. Now i need the other horn too.. but it should still honk with one horn though right? i dont see a reason it shouldnt.

Here are the pictures of the wires. I'm guessing on these .. so idk what to do now

Compare to the other car. From the schematic (& my poor memory), there is a Green w/Yellow tracer wire that goes to one horn and then loops to the other one.

Hard for me to tell. But, I don't think you have the correct wires in your pic.

Those are the only wires that are loose atm. I'll try to test the voltage and stuff with a volt meter. What would would suggest i do at this point?

heres how it goes, both horns fed by one green/white wire. 1st horn gets both wires crimped into one plug, the wire continues from there to the 2nd horn. horns are grounded to the body, clean the body grounds to bare metal and use electric grease to keep them from re-rusting and making already wimpy stock horns wimpier.

Thanks guys, the ground on the car was ****ed up lol.. i didnt get a chance to get a volt meter on it, but I said i should just use a different ground and extend the power cable.. and boom the horn came on lol.Now i need to buy another horn :) Thanks for all your help. I'm happy now i can honk at people :)

lol , do u have a sound clip? cost?

i think around $40, its LOUD, a little on the high side for tone but loud. i'll get a clip tomorrow or try to :gap: i still have one stock horn in the front, i think the high tone AND the stebel. its an airhorn but an all in one compact unit.

you HAVE to use the relay when installing it. i wrote a little how-to here a while back that no one looked at. its easy and should take under an hour with basic tools/knowledge. 139Db airhorn for $40, mounting it in the fenderwell i did loose some volume but its protected from the elements.

i've got clips, but hard to tell on video. trust me, mine is ALOT louder in person. i need to clean up my wiring to it...it doesnt even sound like its working in the clip. come to think of it, i hit a nasty pothole. i may have knocked a wire loose or something. i'll check it tomorrow.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auvSkYyD5G0 it is working, its a bad spot. the snow/houses there all collude to totally cancel out the sound :rofl: most of the sound is the stock high tone, but the volume is the stebel. its weird, the stock high tone and the stebel are around the same freq so you hear the warbling annoying tone of the stock high but its got some serious volume behind it. just trust me, its loud.

ooh thanks alot
