Horn Relay Diagrahm

[Jerry - OHIO]

Any body have a simple diagrahm of how a horn is wired to the relay. I
need to wire some sound on my trike.

Hello Jerry

Are you asking about how to do it on an aircooled VW or in general?
There is no relay involved in the horn circuit in ACVWs (at least not
with T1s).

In Beetles the horn +-side takes constant voltage from the fuse box.
The - side goes to the switch in the steering wheel, which grounds
the circuit when pressed. No relays needed. Following diagram shows
the circuit (H = horn switch, H1 = horn):

Here is a simple diagram after a quick google search

Nowadays I install the horns inside of the trunk for protection from the
elements as per one person's suggestion. BUT you don't have a trunk in the
front of your trike. ;-)
