Some questions about the wiring in my car. Some wires weren't listed in the vehicle information list.

- The wires for the emergency lights, colour and where?
- The car horn is said to be black, that didn't work.
- The wires for the air-bags? I want to avoid activating them while rigging my alarm.

If anybody knows, It would make my day easier if someone could tell me,

Thanks.

Emergency lights would also be your parking lights. YOu will need to use relays to siolate the switch from the lights : https://www.velocitymotorsport.com/images/install_notes/147.jpg

As for the horn wire, what model is this for ? The air bag you don't have to really worry about as long as you don't cut into the loomed wires or probe unknown wires with a test light.

Sorry, forgot to include that it's a C180..

The thing is I wanted to connect the emergency lights, and not the park lights. I connected the parking lights at the moment, but that does not include the emergency lights.

Guess I'll have to crawl down to the dealership/garage and ask for a schematic.
