Hi, so I am installing some aftermarket horns in my car and the car originally came with a single horn hooked up to a 10 amp fuse. If you can, try and get a 12 A fuse (Dunno if you can get an 11 A one).Īnd yeah, as you've got to make sure the wire is proper gauge to handle 11 A in any case.īut in theory, if everything lines up, it could maybe work. I would advise against it, because if something goes wrong and draws too much power, the Fuse won't do it's job (won't blow), and could fry the horns, or, as noted, maybe cause a fire. I know that my 10 amp fuse with blow up if i were to hook up both horns but would I be fine if i swap out the 10 amp fuse for a 15 amp fuse? I know that installing a bigger fuse in a smaller fuse spot could be bad if there is a short circuit since it would cause a fire, but in my case i should be fine right? What are you guy's thoughts on this? I'd like to hear people with electrical knowledge thoughts down on the comment section. Now that I am installing a pair of aftermarket horns, I used ohm's law to calculate the total power draw, and I'm looking at around 11 amps (aka 5.5 amps per horn).
