96 Honda Accord horn output

I am using an Alpine SEC-100S and I think I may have fried the siren output. If I still wanted the horn to work, could I hook the park light output into the horn wire and get the horn to honk when the siren goes off? Or will this honk my horn everytime I turn the park lights on? Any ideas how I can get this to work?

 first what makes you think that you fried your siren output? second some horns (most in fact) need a negative input to honk, and most parklights need a positive. it might be something simple like a bad connection for the siren. double check that you have a good ground, and make sure that you have a properly solderd joint for the positive siren output.jmacf14

You could do the light flash, but you'll need to use a relay to switch polarity. You also won't be able to silently arm with the park lights connected in that way. Like jmacf14 asked, why do you think the siren output is dead? Is it because the siren doesn't sound properly? Could be water in it..

I think the siren output is fried because when I was installing the alarm the output showed a constant 12 volt output and then when the alarm went off, the voltage would drop to zero. I was trying to hook into the car's horn and I traced the wire all the way into the steering wheel and so I am sure I am on the right wire and it still will not work. ANY IDEAS???   (a further note, I do not have the original siren that came with this unit and that is why I am trying to hook into the horn)

No one has any ideas?

use a flasher with a relay to the hornThere are 10 types of people in the world, ones that understand binary and ones that dont.

How would I wire the flasher and relay so they would work?

You could always use a relay and a combination of the siren output and the light flash output.

I have a 1996 accord and I was wondering how the horn actually works. I am trying to get an alarm output to work for the horn but it would be easier if I new how the horn actually worked! I have a wire connected to the horn wire in the steering wheel and I thought if I grounded this wire the horn should honk. It doesn't seem to work that way. Any help would be appreciated!Thanks
