Hello All:
Just to let you know, I tried the brown wire voltage test with ignition on and I did not get 12 volts, only millivolts. I then took apart both horns and tried to adjust the breakers, testing each setting by putting one horn contact on my negative battery terminal and running the other terminal through my multimeter (set to DC) to the positive terminal. No matter what I did, no matter how I adjusted the horns, no noise, nothing. I have spent about five hours on this project, far too long in my opinion, and so I bolted the horns on my car with the intention of ordering new ones when I get home.
On my way out of the driveway tonight, I pressed the horn ring and you can probably guess what happened. One of the horns sounded. It is clear that I need to adjust the other horn and I am in business. I do not want to wake the crew so I will try it in morning.
You have all spent a lot of time and energy helping me with this, and for that I am thankful. At the risk of sounding needy, I am a bit frustrated by the fact that I am not successfully testing my components, although I can successfully test the voltage of my battery all day. I was also able to test the resistance of the breaker contacts inside the horns to ensure they were opening and closing. If anyone has any insights as to why the horns did not sound the way I tested them, I would love to hear what you have to say. Again, thanks.
Cheers,
Jeff Pucillo
