Hi,I want to use airhorns just for the alarm. My alarm has a horn honk output (-) ,so, instead of going to the factory horn I want to go to the air horns,How would I set up the relay?

P.S. I searched on here and only found out how to hook up the relay through the siren and using a flasher but i don't want to do that since theres a horn honk output already in the alarm unit.

Okay Help me understand why you think you need a relay?

The air Horn Solenoid takes very little power. Just as much as the Relay coil does.

A Relay is not needed.

Just hook the red to Hot and the Black to the Alarm circuit.
