Simple horn wiring for your hotrod. 1968 pontiac firebird 461

[@SSRsGarage]

I knew I was missing something in my column. Thank you for the video. One of those you wouldn’t think would help much but ends up being super helpful.

Sometimes it's not the fancy videos that help. I'm glad I made this, even if not too many people watched it.

[@RamblinAround]

Nice explanation, I'm sure this will help quite a few people.

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Thanks, its so simple i don't know why i didn't think of it earlier. Been driving the car for years without a horn. This is exactly hkw the horn on a 1970 bertle is wired, and is a variation of the factory firebird wiring. The factory had the reverse ground thing going on cept it reverse grounded a relay which then turned on power for the horn which was wired as "switched hot" ... kinda a lot of hassle for something that doesn't draw a lot of amperage... plus my wiring is all hacked up so i just made the horn work. Thanks for stopping by.

Great video. Trying to pass inspection. Hopefully this reverse negative ground idea works on my C10!

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Brian Grogan hopefully, keeps things simple. Thanks for watching

Great video!! Man I'm few weeks for inspection for my 79 z28 car thanks for sharing 👍🏽👍🏽!!

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Another way to do this is with a horn relay, it may be louder that way. Wire it same way, keep relay always hot and just run a ground to the horn switch...

[@melvincoleman8008]

I'm going to try something similar to this on my Fiero project. I want to bypass the original horn setup and relay. I just have to figure out how to get a ground wire through the steering column.

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Good point

[@TheFrameoff]

Well explained... Build On

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Thanks, its the simplest way to wire a horn.

good info, thanks

[@InvincibleExtremes]

+Scott Best thanks for watching ;-)

[@subron6er]

thanks, mine don't work at the moment. It looks like your gas gage is not working , mine went to full when i put power to it after sitting for 18 years.

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Yeah my cluster wiring is a mess. It has a huge short in it somewhere so when use the dash lights the draw is insane. So i just drive around with the dash lights turned all the way down and it works great. Someday i'll get a new circuit board for it. But body work and suspension were priorities ;-)

[@subron6er]

Invincible Extremes yea, you got some cool cars. I had heard that if you lose ground your gas gage will go over past full. I got a new tank for mine, sending unit and tore the entire car apart about 2 years ago, just getting it back together now, working on it a few hrs. each weekend. good luck

My 70 GMC has the same column at least the horn contacts and three bolt upper bearing retainer

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Yeah I think all gm Columns are similar

[@Chris-sd4ri]

Invincible Extremes Muscle Cars Garage That particular bearing retainer and bearing was used for like 40 years in the Corvette but only four years in the truck

[@novoiperkele]

The fuse seems to be missing..

[@dyan1794]

Do you know what the “little nipple” is actually called? I’ve been looking through so many vids but haven’t found out, I lost my lil nipple. Just trying to buy a new one.😂

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Wish I knew sorry

[@brucerumschlag2262]

where is your relay located?

[@SlickD217]

Probably want to throw a fuse in front of that hot lead.

[@InvincibleExtremes]

Yes definitely

[@farmerchuck3]

so you didnt have to use a relay?

[@InvincibleExtremes]

No you still do, this is just how I ground the relay. Relay is always hot. You can get away with not using a relay but that's a lot of current going through a couple small contacts
