/o/, help an electrically challenged anon: how would you wire up a horn button that bypasses the clock spring in the steering assembly? Can it be done by simply wiring in a momentary switch directly to the clock spring wires? One side to ground, one side to the junction box?

What are you trying to accomplish exactly?
Do you have any clue what the clock spring even does?

I need to bypass the OEM steering assembly and utilize a horn button. The Clock Spring acts as the turn signal reset and as far as I know, acts as the conduit for the horn circuit. Like I said, I'm no electrical wiring expert by any measure and I turn wrenches when I can, but I've never done anything involving wiring, relays, the junction, etc. Before you go on an Aspergers tirade, any other ideas are appreciated.

1. Look up alarm installs for your make model (thanks for providing that bythe way, makes it super easy to help you you fucking cunt)
2. determine if your horn is negative or positive switched
3. tap horn wire from #1 to momentary NO interrupt switch (a button you mong)
4. attach other end to either ground (-) or 12v (+) source based on #2

You've now bypassed the clock spring which has nothing to do with the turn signals and have a horribly inconvenient button to place in a less convenient location than the OEM steering wheel. as a bonus you didn't completely fucktard your steering wheel or chop up your wiring like the retarded celery stalk you are.

congratulations. ask your mom for a cookie.

My car's horn button is a ground side switch, thanks you fucking asscake. Got a button on the way and wiring. Helped clear this up, looks like the button is completing the horn circuit by sending a ground signal to the junction, completing the circuit. Understandable, good info retard.
