2017 Horn Wire
I would like to tie into the factory horn wire without connecting a wire out at the horn. Does anyone have a schematic that shows where that wire goes in the engine compartment? I believe it is a brown wire. Thanks

I tied in behind the front grill. You will find 2 horns there and one with a plug. Easiest place to tie in. i was able to do everything without removing the from grill. Used a plastic pry bar to disconnect the horn wiring latch and fed the cable up through the top to have more room to work. Used a tap crimp and ran wire to my relay for trigger.
Initially i tried tracing the wire into the engine baby but everything merges together into a huge loom and i didnt feel like destroying that.

I plan to use one of the uplifter switches to engage air horn when regular horn is activated. From the wiring schematic, it appears I can cut the wire from the particular uplift switch fuse power and connect the signal wire from horn and negate the need for another relay.
