For Boat Train Car Semi Truck Air Horn 2 Compressors Kit 12V 148DB Dual Trumpet

Horn Installation

HORN MOUNTING

Identify a suitable area for mounting, preferably an unobstructed sheet-metal surface like the frame or body of the vehicle so as to provide a firm platform which will help protect the horn from damage due to excessive shaking. Do not attach the horn to any plastic or other flexible material.

Using the bracket as a guide estimate and mark the positions for the holes and then perforate to size using a drill.

Use the provided mounting hardware to fasten the horn.

Compressor

Compressor:MOUNTING

The ideal location for the compressor to be installed is a dry area inside your engine compartment where it will be safe from exhaust and engine manifold heat.

To make the compressor firm and secure, drill a hole of 3/16". IMPORTANT: The compressor must be mounted vertically (with air exhaust port facing downward).

Install the bolt鈥檚 head into the compressor housing鈥檚 slot. Tighten the compressor firmly to the vehicle with the provided lock washer and nut.

AIR LINE INSTALLATION

Connect one side of the airline to the compressor鈥檚 air exhaust port and the other side to the trumpet's barbed fitting.

Do not make any sharp bends or kinks in the tubing which could alter the sound of the horn or even restrict airflow.

Note

The Horn is the perfect addition to 12V vehicles

IMPORTANT

Airlines are sometimes already pre-installed. In such situation, ensure that they are inserted entirely into the fittings on the trumpet and compressor.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (NEW HORN BUTTON)

In a dry location, install the relay provided making sure that terminals face downwards near the horn.

Using a 16-gauge wire or heavier, connect PIN 87 of the relay to the positive (+) terminal of the compressor.

Connect PIN 85 of the relay to the horn button (not provided). The other horn button terminal is attached to any rust and paint free metal to ground. Connect using an 18-gauge wire or heavier.

Connect PIN 30 and 86 of the relay to the battery, alternator or other positive (+) of 12-volts. Make sure the wire used is a 16-gauge wire or heavier. Use a 20A fuse (not provided) to protect the electrical circuit.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (FACTORY HORN SWITCH)

For vehicles with a two-terminal factory horn, transfer the wires to the compressor鈥檚 terminals. If the horn doesn鈥檛 sound even if the compressor motor turns on, simply reverse the wires.

For vehicles with one-terminal factory horns, make sure you transfer the wire to the compressor鈥檚 positive (+) terminal. The negative (-) terminal uses a 16-gauge wire or heavier to connect to ground.

This black color, dual trumpet horn, will produce a strong power driven sound. The trumpets are made of metal to ensure better sound quality, maximum strength and durability. The system includes Two maintenance free heavy duty 12 volt air compressor, hose, relay and mounting hardware. The perfect compact solution to enjoy a loud horn sound on all vehicles with a 12V system.
