Converted my 1949 to 12 volt and used a 6v horn relay. Worked for a while now horn is always on unless you disconnect power to relay. Did I fry relay?

Anyone have installation instructions for town and country horns?

My restoration shop hooked both horns to top tab on relay and left middle tab empty (no connections). Was this correct?

Many thanks.

You need to use 3 connections on the relay. They are usually marked on the bottom. One goes to bat power. One goes to the horn button & the other goes to the horn/horns.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
