      place a resistor inline with the negative parking light output.

      any resistor of correct resistance will work. you will place it inline as in wire-resistor-wire.

      if you want the horn to honk during lock/unlock I think you have to turn  on the features if I remember correctly. try pressing lock twice quickly, the horn should honk....

      the unit will honk on double unlock and double lock.  if i remember there is no option to change it to honk on lock/unlock.  ------------- Ted

      Hey guys thanks for your tips but they didn't work. The people who installed it said it needs a module but u figure if the panic button triggers the horn why can't the lock or unlock do it?
