Horn = High Beams
Hey All,
I've thought about this for years, in other vehicles. When I honk my horn, personally, I want my high beams to activated simultaneously. To accentuate my frustration.
I don't do too much friendly tooting. I don't think that's what the horn is for. I'm a patient person, people don't have to react instantaneously to make me happy. But when someone does something dumb, I give them horn. And people are always doing something stupid (like looking at their phone, and generally not paying attention). Anywho...
I was looking at the fuse box. It seems like a somewhat simple affair. Sorry about the crude sketches below, electrons and I don't get along. But this is where I'd need to add a relay if I wanted to make this idea work. Those with some electrical smarts, let me know if this would work. I'm not sure when I may do this, but at least wanted to document it.
The RED lines represent what I would be adding to the existing wiring.
- The first sketch is daylight operation with no lights and no horns activated.
- The 2nd sketch is with the high beams turned on.
- The 3rd sketch is with the horn activated ... the relay pulls in the high beam circuit.
