Justin Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 I done the big three a day ago and work fine all day today with no problems...... And then I got home from work today parked it in the garage and went in side for about 2 hours. Then all of a sudden my horn was going off. It was beeping like it was the alarm or anything it was just stright going off. So i hoped in in and tried to start it to see if it would stop. But when it started the starter kept going so I killed it but the starter would stoped so I pulled the + off. And I let it sit and reset. Then I tried it again and it started with know problem but the horn wont stop. So I pulled the fuse on the horn. What could the be?? Could the big three cause this? I dont see why it would......

Interesting situation to say the least.... not generally something that the big-3 would cause unless you knocked something loose when you were getting all the wire hooked up and tightened down. Either that or you might have some wires crossing somewhere, and if it's a power wire, you could be sending a constant current to whatever wires might be crossed like your horn and such. Kind of doubt this though, since you usually don't get this lucky and just have your horn go off constantly, generally causes something to get fried and the wonderful smoke/smell of electrical..... Wish I could be of more help but never run into this situation personally. My best guess is still that you knocked something loose or maybe cracked a different wire when installing and tightening everything down.

roscoe1129 Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 wow done the big 3 a couple times with out these results! Check All your wires you put in there and the wires close. I would look for any bare wires that could cause shorts.

Justin Posted February 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Ya I dont think it was the big 3 either. I check all 3 wires and they are clean and coverd. Maybe its just some thing to do with the ecu. I have been having voltage drop from the amp. I dunno....... But I just got home and put the fuse back in and I have no problems. And the horn working fine. I am very confused. Should I hook the amp back up and see if it does it again or what??

dmanson Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Ok what ever it was it poped my interior fuse. But I replaced and everything is working perfect. What size fuze should I run between the batt and alt? depends on the size wire you are using. 250 or 300 amp fuse for 1/0. some people (such as myself) don't use a fuse between the battery and alt, you can add one for that warm fuzzy though.
