Wiring newbie with some questions

Installation Help & Advice Horn Kits
1

Hey guys,

Just got the Conductor 228VX and I am really excited to get this thing blasting in my 2003 Chevy Blazer

I am very new to the vehicle wiring hence why I bought the easiest to install horn (according to hb)

I’ve been reading the forums quite a bit to get a grasp on the electrical portion of the install and I wanted to get some clarification on some things before I attempt this.

Firstly the diagram shows me this:

[Air Compressor]-------[Inline Fuse]------[12 Volt DC Ignition Source]
|
|
L-----------[Ground]

Couple questions:

What is the inline fuse? Did it come with the kit or would that already be in your vehicle?

Where would I add a toggle switch to cut the power to the compressor incase I dont want it running and what would I need to get for that?

Thanks again

Welcome to the forums.

Here is the Conductors diagram:

It says it comes with the inline fuse…

If you want to add the toggle switch for a master cutoff, put it on the trigger wire between your ignition source and the pressure switch.

Thanks guys

I got a problem after installation - I got it all to work , compressor comes on switch to it works.

Solenoid button worked the first time - the solenoid made a noise but now it wont work at all.

Tried removing the push button out of the equasion, replaced the fuse, but it still wont fire off

Any ideas ?

THanks for the diagram.

I decided to plunge into it and go the easy wiring route using a momentary push button instead of wiring right into the horn, which worked out quite well.

Thanks for the diagram and the tips :slight_smile: Even though I only had enough airline for 2 of the 4 trumpets, its pretty damn loud. Had a good night of giving some people a wake up.

I’ll defineatly be posting some install pics soon
