Ok so here is what happened... i hated my horn but i loved my friends horn that he has in an 89 Buick Park Avenue.. (sounds like a freight train) so i went to the wrecker and picked up 2 horns outta the same car. i tapped into the power from the horn on the passenger side grounded both new horns ( with keeping the original 2 attatched. worked great for about couple min until i went to record a video of it. Now the only horn that works is the one behind the grill. I can't find any fuses for the horns.. just a couple Relays. 3 to be exact.

Horn 1 Relay if removed kills the horn behind the grill
Horn 2 and 3 don't make a difference ... if somebody could please help me that would be great!!

btw this is 98 Nissan Max GLE

grounds are all good, just wondering if i can put a 10 amp in the anti theft spot instead of a 7.5 amp fuse

i wouldnt.. unless u like replacing wiring and relays...

i have 2 chevy horns... they work without a problem... also there is a 3rd plug that doesnt do anything.... its right by the grill...

If I'm wrong apologies, but from what I gather your running 4 horns correct? if so your 4 horns are probably drawing to many AMPS for that 7.5 amp fuse, eliminate 2 factory horns and check if ur fuse blows, don't put a 10 amp fuse, fuse ratings are there for a reason-> going along with f550mara...- good luck.

ok so i bought a Relay today 12 volt 30 amp has 5 connectors on it

1,2 Power to (whaterver ur powering) #87
3 Fused Power from Battery #51
4 To Switching Means #86
5 To Ground #85

now my question is.. do i top into the existing wire to my horn and hook it to the (4) then run my power wire right from battery ect......


this should... if im correct.. when i honk the horn should trip the relay and provide full 12 volt current to the 2 new horns.. and not pop my fuse for my anti theft anymore?

The horn in Maximas is GAY as hell, I'm going to up grade to BMW or VW horns, or any dual notes,

I would screp the factory horn and use the new ones, not 3 or 4

you know that there's two power wires behind the grill. Look closely. The connection is probably wrapped around another wire.
