Adding a switch to the FIAMM air horns...

Ok, here we go...

I am normally mechanically inclined but we didnt want the airhorns to be our only horn so I went and bought a momentary toggle switch so we can use them separate from the normal horn. The problem I am running into is I have no idea how to wire the switch in. Here are a couple of diagrams I threw together from the not so informative instructions that came with it.



#30 runs to the battery with an inline 20A fuse

It says that if the horn button is connected to a + than (I guess it would be) the negative is ran to #85 on the relay and #86 should be a ground.

Than it says if the horn button is connected to a - than (II guess it would be) the positive is ran to #85 on the relay and #86 will splice in between #30 on the relay and the fuse.

I am lost because I have no idea how to wire this switch in. :help: Here is what the back of the switch looks like...



Thanks for reading and taking the time to help.

Got it figured out...

#86 on the relay goes to a ground. #'s 2 & 5 on the switch run to a + and #'s 1, 4 , 3 & 6 run to #85 on the relay.
