Horn - Postive or negative -
I own a Ford F150 XLT 1993. I need to know if the Horn is a Postive or Negative. I am attemping to put in a Car Starter. I was told by the company that this truck is Negative. I not sure how to find out. I have a voltage checker and when i use it on the Blue wire for the horn it light up until you honk the horn then it gose out. This sound like to me it is postive horn. Any help to understand this would be great.
Thanks

I'm about 99.9% positive it's a negative ground horn. Pull the wire off and check the voltage from the wire to a ground. When you hit the horn, if you have voltage at the wire, it's a positive horn system. (That sounds kinky, doesn't it?) :-)
