the horn pad i installed on my truck keeps blowing fuses it has the 2 wires that are connected by plastic (lt blue and yellow/blue dot) and a ground that was located in one of the holes in the steering wheel used to pull it with a puller when i operate the horn it pops the fuse is it possible i need another special steering wheel for the cruise horn pad?

 

To clarify, you put in a cruise control horn pad on a truck w/o cruise?

 

You must be thinking what I am thinking. The cruise pad horn section is wired differently than a non-cruise pad.

 

yes non cruise truck w tilt column installed in a post i read that with the cruise the horn uses a relay and changes the circuit

So what is the complete package
1. the horn pad
2. amplifier
3. throttle control for under hood
4. harness for all
5. speedo cable with vss?

i seen some donor trucks in a local junk yard some are v8s would like to install complete package

 

I don't know exactly what you actually need to do this swap, or even if it can be a clean swap. That's why sometimes certain options were only available on certain trim trucks, the main harness might be different.

You have the list down pretty good. What is happening is the cruise horn pad grounds the horn wire, which completes the circuit the relay. The relay actually puts the power to the horn.

Your old pad was just a simple switch with two wires, one in and one out to feed the horn. So you are probably grounding the horn circuit with the cruise pad and blowing the fuse.

Maybe someone else has done this swap and will have some info. If not, and you figure it out, write back in so I can learn something new.
