Horn Wiring
Recently fitted a vintage horn to the TF. It sounds great as the alarm but lacks something as the main warning horn. So i had this thought and wondered if anyone could see the pitfalls that i've missed.
The idea is to split the horn circuit along the lines in the diagram (many thanks to Deiter's pages for this) so that the klaxon operates from the alarm and the main horns from the push butttons. :ohmy:

Don't worry - I've been called an idiot before! :lol:

I assume the X near the 808 headjoint is marking a cable cut to stop the airhorns from bleeding over to the Klaxon.
I see to other problems though, You've got not power feed through your new relay, needs to be 3 pins like the horn relay above it
Second problem, with your curcuit both sets of horns will still sound on horn and alarm, you'll also need to cut at postion C46-7 to stop the curcuit from still being complete all the way round to the klaxon with out breaking the alarm
Hope that makes sense
