Tim:
I am in mid process with my '70 TR6's original horns
(on hold while in body shop getting painted). First
thing I did was made sure the horns actually worked!
Run direct lines from your battery to the horn's (- to
-, then + on battery and JUST TOUCH the + to the horn).
Repeat process with other horn. Simple, but when I heard
my horns sound, I new I could move on to wiring.
