gin-fizz-whizz Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 After the "lambs bleat" went completely unheard on the M23 yesterday , I just purchased myself a pair of low/high note horns made by Wipac (codes WH5786 and WH5787). Should be a straight swap for the in series OE items. However, there are no fitting instructions in the boxes and the retailer said this is quite normal for their products. All I want to know is, as the horns have twin UNMARKED terminals, which is the +ve and which is the earth or does it not matter. So I called Wipac technical support this morning and spoke to their support department who simply recommended I have them fitted by a qualified electrician as they can't give advice due to H&S. It's a no-brainer I'm sure so help please. Blue Roadsport with silver stripe. . . . .it does exactly what it says on the tin!

gin-fizz-whizz Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 Thanks. Just for info, they are similar to these here but bought new from local auto spares outlet not Ebay.

Mick Day Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Replacement horns from CC are earthed through the body of the horn so there's only one wire to it. So get a meter & check if one of the terminals is connected to the horn body. If not then it probably doesn't matter which way round you connect it.
