I have never installed these nor am I directed authorized dealer but in perusing the install guide, it appears that the horn function is predetermined by the firmware for each particular vehicle. I think horn outputs are not enabled by default and therefore it has no signal output on that wire. Perhaps that option could be check marked in the firmware upload tool by the dealer according to the footnote for that output in the install guide. I have no way of knowing that though but if it is possible then that seems like the most logical approach to enabling a horn output that is not on by default for your vehicle. If they are able to enable the output, it would require a relay to pulse the vehicle horn wire as the DS4+ output is very low and directly connecting it would probably overload and blow the output.
Perhaps a directed dealer that has used these units may be able to offer more guidance. I would suggest trying a different Best Buy or another local directed installer to see if they may be able to help you. I uploaded the guide and linked it below for your reference. Good luck.

I’ve been installing Directed products for over 26 years. I’m also a prototype tester and had a DS4 in my vehicle at least one year before it got released and trust me it’s enabled on every firmware unless the guy that programmed your module prior to installation turned it off. Also, yes it’s low current but it’s enough for the negative horn and no relay is needed. I installed over 1000 units so far on all types of vehicles and horn is always enabled, I personally disable it every time unless the client wants it. The option is in the security menu when connected to XKloader2 or if you’re editing it via Bluetooth. Authorized Directed dealer only.

Yes thanks. I saw that Kreg357 was able to provide the exact guide for your specific vehicle. It was the only thing I could find on the DS4+ using a google search. Directed has that stuff locked down pretty good if you are not a dealer. I was basically just referencing it to see if the unit had a horn output available and hoped others would chime in to guide you further.
