Airhorns

Hi mick

Don't worry too much, I am paranoid where electrics are concerned :oops:

If you have taken the feed from the top of the fuse box, i.e. where the coil is fed from, it is NOT fused. I am assuming that you have the under dash fuse box (in the passenger knee bin)

If you can take it from the bottom of the fuse which the horns normally run from (Sparky's is 1-2, and probably is on yours too - better check though), then you have plenty of capacity, and the advantage of being able to use them without the ignition on.

If you are ok with using the coil wire, then you can just put an in line fuse in your feed from it.

My personal preference is to have a clean coil wire, with no connections, again because off a bad experience with those horrible little blue scotch block things which gave me an intermittent misfire.

PS I bet they shock a few people 8)
 
Changed the wiring and done as you said Richard, I'm more paranoid than you with wiring believe me. While I had the fusebox in my hand I thought I would check the fuses. Fuse 1-2 in the W/S manual says 25 amp, mine was 35amp and did look like an old fuse. Not sure if I did the right thing but have changed it for a 25 amp. I also noticed no spare fuses were carried so put some in. I hate wires , now to get an extinguisher to carry, better safe and all that. Cheers Richard for all your help, much appreciated. Oh and yes does make a few people jump, me included. Mick
