Thank you. Wish I'd seen your video before going lazy and spending $36CND on the Denali wiring harness for my Stebel Nautilus. Well done instruction man!
Thank you. I was considering buying the wiring kit too. It just turned into a project after reading the contents. Did the wiring kit have everything you needed? The one I saw had no wires!!
Finally somebody that makes sense without going to the bike and trying to explain how they attached the cables around the frame of the bike and such which is very confusing
Awesome video. I was looking at replacing my failing car horn and this was the most detailed one I have seen so far. I was wondering about the gauge of wire to be used for the horn and battery and you covered this very well. Thank you again for the video.
Man... Thank you so much for making this video! I really appreciate it. I bought my nautilus on e*ay and it came without a wiring diagram and Italian instructions ONLY. haha.
Awesome video! I have a question. Id like to hook this Stebel nautilus to a c4 corvette. The factory set up has two horns a high tone horn and a low tone horn mounted near the front bumper. I would like to keep the factory horn button in the steering wheel. There is a 15 amp fuse in the fuse box from the factory as well. Would i get power from one of the connectors to the current factory horns? Trying to figure out how to hook this up in my set up. How far from the battery is ideal to mount the fuse? does it matter if its closer to the battery or to the horn? Im planning on using 12 gauge just to be on the safe side. The thicker wire is for the wire running to the fuse and positive terminal? If someone could give some guidance it would be appreciated.
Yeah that's a tough one. I'd look to see how the other horns are connected first and to what fuse(s). Are you adding this horn to the ones already there or replacing one or both? Yes the thicker wire is for power. No the fuse location does not matter. Whatever is most convenient for you. Good luck!
Thanks man that's awesome to hear. You should totally put one on her bike! The best is blasting that horn in a tunnel, everyone looks around so confused.
The other wire would go to the battery. The switch would be between the battery and horn. But you have to make sure you get the right parts. You don't want to ruin stuff.
yes, you would leave the original horn and wiring as is... take a switch of your choice and have that wired one side going from your battery to the '+' terminal on the switch, '-' terminal on the switch will be wired to the 85 terminal on the relay, the 86 terminal on the relay will be to a ground or neg post of batter... now hook up terminal 30 and 87 as stated in the video. have my truck set with stock horn and a train horn on a spring toggle switch (monetary switch) from autozone... hit switch, horn goes, release switch and it springs back to open position
Because the power requirements for the horn are greater than the stock wiring can handle. One of two things will take place if you hook up horn without following these instructions. 1) your horn will function "properly" but at a much lower decibel. 2) You run too much power through the bikes wiring, possibly melting the wires attached to the horn or perhaps damage your electrical system in other ways. Yes, I do realize I am answering a year old question and my answer is simplistic in the extreme.
