94 Lebaron convertible. I hooked up the flashing light wire to the BLACK / YELLOW behind the light switch and it won't work. I can hear the relay kicking in and I get 12 volts at the wire. I checked the wire at the light switch to verify it is the right one and it does have 12 volts when the parking light switch is turned on. I have 2 diagrams, one from here and one from ultra start. One says the location is the light switch and one says the kick panel. I cannot find anything at the kickpanel without major tearing apart. Am I overlooking something?
Also I am having a hard time finding the horn wire. I have the ability to lock, unlock and remote start as of now.

Thanks

I don't know if there is something wrong with my car but the only way I could get the parking lights to flash was to hook it up to the orange wire coming off the light switch. Thanks for the replys. I am going to tackle the horn next. I found the RED / black wire. It doesn't seem to work either. I am going to keep trying.
