Bump for any info on which is the horn wire.

The black wire off of the new gray harness that plugs in is the hot horn wire...The ground comes off the wire that you plug onto the works bezel ring...

Thanks.

That's kinda what I was initially thinking that the black wire had to be the hot horn because there are no other wires, aside from the yellow and orange air bag wires.

However in the pic below, it seems as though that black wire (which on the factory plug is green) is grounded to the factory wheel housing.

It was and is still confusing to me because both the new plug with the black wire and the factory plug (green wire) are both located in the 3rd pin position on the gray 7 pin plug.

Would seem that the new black wire being in the same 3rd pin location would also be a ground. Unless that factory hub mount thing that the (hot?) 3rd pin wire goes to is somehow not grounded to the whole steering assembly and one of the airbag wires is a ground for the horn.

If i need to, I will just hook up the air bag resistors and mount the hub, with Bell plug and run the black wire thru the hub, reconnect the battery and use my tester on the black wire.

I pay'd no attention to the factory pins...just yank it off and plug in the new connector...thats the horn.,,just make sure you plug in both airbag resistors...(if installing a non-airbag wheel). If you plug them in wrong and reconnect the battery and start the car you'll have to do the srs reset procedure to reset the airbag light after they're plugged in right.

Oh thanks we'll do.

Yes I definatlly want to hook the airbag resistors up correctly the first time because the reset steps to get rid of the flashing air bag light, looks like a PITA to do. Turn key here for 2 seconds, turn off for 3.7-3.9 seconds, do cartwheel, open door 10 times fast but not to fast, then backflip twice in 2 seconds, well something like that.

Thanks for the help man.

I bought a wheel and hub but it didn't come with the resistors...where can I pick them up from?

Crom

iTrader: (47)

Autobacs has them....or you can get them online for a little cheaper..

u can get them from aspec as well.

hi everyone just checking to see if anyone knows what holes to insert the resistors for the SRS delete.

i'm going to be installing the personal wheel + works bell hub + and nrg v2.5 quick release. anyone have any good experiences with the nrg quick release? thanks.

the same ones that I told you in the last thread you asked

the resistors have 2 prongs, the sensors recepticles each have 2 inputs....it only can go in one way

Crom

I know when I installed mine I failed the noob test and put the wires into the perpendicular holes on the resistors and I tripped the air bag light. No biggie - just re-route the wires to go straight in and do the reset.

Mine were done perpendicular and no airbag light for me.

Crom

Maybe I got it backwards......too much dos xx's that night.

I hear ya Well all that matters is that you solved the problem.

anyone know the size of the T bit to take off the screws on the steering wheel? my buddy and i tried the T30 but it didnt' fit.. what's the diff between tamper proof and not tamper proof?

Chad68

Tamper proof has a stud/post in the center of the bolt that makes it a pain in the *** to try to drill out if you stripe it, like I did.
