Relay Supply Wire

[Guest Jaffer]

So I have a bit of time to spend on the car after a very long time!!!

 

I want to fit a relay for the horn.... where can I take the supply from?

 

I have the VG 'map' as supplied, but a proper circuit diagram would have been more useful, does such a thing exist for the VG loom??? [i've done a quick search, but not found anything... ]

 

Thanks for your help!!

Hi,

 

There's a diagram on my website clicky

Hi,

Thanks Grizz.

 

I've taken a supply direct from the starter and will fuse it locally similar to your diagram. I just wondered if there was a suitable place to pull a supply from the loom, [ie with adequate current capacity], but I guess without a circuit diagram of the loom this has not been established!

The wire to Pin 86 on the relay only needs to be light duty.

The wire to Pin 87 is supplied by the VG Loom and is sufficient to carry the current for the horn.

Basically, the relay's purpose is to avoid using the horn push for the full current required for the horn.

This is because the horn push contacts are quite small.

Does this help?

Thanks Griz.... I was ok with wiring the relay etc... the query was where to pull the supply from on the VG loom. There are several brown wires, but without being able to easily establish where they come from or go to I was unsure where to connect in. Like I said I've added another heavy wire into the loom so no worries!

 

Thanks for your help!

Oh, I see. Do you not have the VG Diagram???

Two wires are provided in the loom for the horn and from memory, I think they're purple. Not too sure though.

I have an electronic copy of the VG Loom which I could email to you if you send me a PM.

I have the table cloth which sort of shows where most of it connects thanks Griz, but I was really after a proper circuit diagram for the loom. No worries though... thanks!
