Need help trying to pass inspection tomarrow! Need to wire horn and rev. lights

Stang_ROTY · 08-17-2001, 06:15 PM

I have a 93Gt and need some help wiring the horn and rev. lights so I can make an attempt at passing inspection. I looked in the Chilton's manual and the thing was useless. I have an air bag, too. I have what looks like a horn mounted underneath the drivers side front end but there are no wires attached. I need the reverse lights cause that's mandatory for the safety inspec. and that should be a little easier. Thanks.

Backup lights: Black wire w/pink stripe and purple wire w/orange stripe go to the switch used for your backup lights. You will probably need to add a contact switch to the shifter since most aftermarket shifters have no switch.

Neutral safety switch: Red wire w/light blue stripe and white wire w/pink stripe go to the switch for neutral safety. Some aftermarket shifters come with this switch.
There are a total of 3 electrical plugs that connected to the T5 setup. The plug with 4 wires is the one that has all 4 wires for neutral safety and backup lights.
Two additional plugs with 2 wires each are not used for anything in this conversion.

Ok, thanks. Does anyone know about the horn? I can't believe that the chilton's has nothing on it. Anyway, I found out that my fuse was blown so I replaced it and now when I hit the horn I hear a clicking sound from somewhere inside the dash, I think. I'd really like to try and get a sticker this morning but without the horn I'm dead before I start. Thanks

The clicking you're hearing is the horn relay. That's good. You need to find a dark blue wire near the horn, coming from the harness with the headlight wiring, and plug it into the horn.

Take care
