Well i got a Pilot wheel and i was wondering how do i wire it up? the install kit came with a ring that has the ground what i need to know is where do i hook up the positive?? i will try to get pics tmrw.

 

The horn is just a two wire affair, it should be simple to cut and paste them to the switches. I'll take a look at it this afternoon.

 

as far as i know, the horn will not work unless you get a shoehorn bracket off a civic/crx. mine is disabled at the moment also.

 

It's good now, I had a look at it and screwed around with it for a while. Tricky little bugger it was.

 

on a 96-00 civic.. there is a yellow clip behind the steering colum. you should see this when i remove the SRS stuff.
you tap into one of the wires, and connect it to the wheel... whenever this wire grounds, the horn works....
to test you can attach a wire and ground it somewhere to see if the horn honks and u know you have it.
hopefully this helps you on your 5th gen

 

Like I said, I fixed it already. HatchVX is a good buddy of mine, he lives right down the street. While he was busy getting an engine back into the body, I rewired the horn.

For what it's worth, it's an orange wire in his '92 Si.

 

i left the shoehorn on there. you should've just had ground out the horn cable.

cause the shoehorn is already wired up.


i sure hope you aren't using the wire that's sodered to the hub as ground.

 

OK, if the shoehorn is that copper spring thingie, I had to trim that to contact he copper plate on the new wheel. From there, the wire that came off that plate is wired to the switches that grounds out to a wire I added to the hub.

The circuit runs like it would on a factory car, I just had to tweak it a little bit to fit the new wheel.

 

^ Kai was wiring the horn as i was gonna deaf as he tested it mulitple times :fawk:

 

It kept going off by itself. hfawk:
