Will this work for adding a air horn or electric horn. I want to disconnect my stock horn and use this method for my air horn. I am using a 12v 80amp relay w/ 30amp fuse ?
Can i use this to wire a air horn to. The reason i ask is because I deleted my stock horn and added air horns with a 80 amp relay that came with the horns and it works great up until i stay on the horn for more that 3-4 seconds then i blow the 30amp fuse that comes inline w/the relay. I would really like your suggestions. By the way this is my 2016 F150 lariat supercharged w/12K miles. 3” lift kit and I installed hellwig front and rear anti sway bars. Sweet ride.
Good points. Do you have find a situation of finding a relay that seems to be working by using a electrical test meter, but then when it is installed in the car, it does not seem to be working?
Id your accessories have a ground aswell can you ground both relay and accessories to the battery negative or should you ground the relay to the battery and the accessorie to a bolt
Thanks for the video, I'm about to add a back up camera and don't want it running all the time, you put this in such a way even a dumbie like me could figure out I'm missing a part 😂
The pic you show can easily be found on google. My problem is this: The little diagram on the side of my relay shows 85, 86, 87, & 30. The pins, however, are numbered 85, 86, 87, & 87a. ??? Is 87a the same as 30? If so, why can't these genius electrical engineers be consistant by putting either 30 on both the diagram AND the pin OR put 87a on both the diagram AND the pin??? Why do they have to make life so confusing for us electrical nerds??

Bro, you are my hero for “how to connect any mic to ps3”. Absolute legend, much love friend.
Thank you for the visual as well as the explanation, I have been majorly confused about relays and this made it super easy.

thanks gonna need this when i add underglow to my dump truck
Toggle has positive, load and ground with do I use ?
Id your accessories have a ground aswell can you ground both relay and accessories to the battery negative or should you ground the relay to the battery and the accessorie to a bolt
It would not matter because the bolt is touching the frame as is the battery’s negative. So ground your terminals to wherever is convenient
Ok thank you

So the fuse tap can be any switched 12v wire ?
Yes
MEOW !! SIICK !!

Figured it out for myself no thanks to anyone. 30 and 87a are the same!
