CONTENTS

  • "Ooga" Air Horn (Chrome Color)
  • 12V Heavy Duty Air Compressor
  • Wire with Connectors
  • Mounting Hardware

The specific voltage requirement for this horn kit is 12 volt DC, therefore installation must be done to a DC power source of 12 volts.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

  • Make sure you never attempt to disassemble this horn kit's electrical components.
  • Never use your bare hands to any part of the compressor immediately after or during use.
  • Avoid operating this product in an area with risk of falling or submergence into a liquid (water).
  • Do not reach out for or touch any component that has fallen or been submerged into water.
  • Make sure you set up in areas with good ventilation.
  • Never sound the air horn anywhere near your ear(s) or that of another person.
  • Make sure your battery ground is detached before getting your installation started.
  • Employ equipment for eye protection during drilling operations.

MOUNTING

  • Identify a suitable area for mounting, preferably an unobstructed sheet-metal surface like the frame or body of the vehicle so as to provide a firm platform which will help protect the horn from damage due to excessive shaking. Do not attach the horn to any plastic or other flexible material.
  • Indicate the positions before drilling the hole of 1/4-inches in diameter. With the provided hardware for mounting, firmly tighten them to the vehicle.
  • Install the bolt's head into the compressor housing's slot. Tighten the compressor firmly to the vehicle with the provided mounting hardware.


Installation in a high location underneath the hood and the downward orientation of the trumpet will prevent the horn from collecting any water.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (FACTORY HORN SWITCH)

  • For vehicles with a two-terminal factory horn, transfer the wires to the compressor's terminals. If the horn doesn't sound even if the compressor motor turns on, simply reverse the wires.
  • For vehicles with one-terminal factory horns, make sure you transfer the wire to the compressor's positive (+) terminal. The negative (-) terminal uses a 16-gauge wire or heavier to connect to ground.
