Featured Replies

hey guys in my car i am hooking a panic alarm up and i cant figur out how to run the lights and horn into the brai n and the relay. any one have experiance with this pleas help thanks Rob.

There should be a diagram for your car and alarm system online somewhere, giving you wire colors... look around.

 

That's how I've done alarms and stereos in other cars, anyway.

Most of your run of the mill relays have 4 wires. Ground, Power, Signal, and Output. You'll need to know which is where on the realy itself. Find a good ground and hook it up. Power should be a 12+ fused off the battery for your system. Signal will be the wire from the control box that powers either the horn or lights depending on which one you are doing at the time. And output goes to the positive input for the light or horn.

ok its an 82 and i cant find anything on the net. my relays hav five 4 around the outside one in the middle i have looked on the 12volt.com and i cant figur it out i meen i hooked it directly to the horn the green and black wire but it didnt work :( but i got as diagram form jerry (thanks again) and i think i cna figur it out but any input is still welcome.

still no luck. any one knopw where the hazzerd light relay is on an 82 gl wagon i might just have to hard wire it :-\ but i meen if it works then i dont care :) a;so the horn relay ? thanks guys looking at the diagram but im still a lil confused.

the headlights are live all the time and ground through the switch. try the parking light curcuit. you may have to make a relay that creates a ground before the swithc for that to work.

 

same as with the horn
