Features:
  • Fits 1953-1956 GM cars & trucks (factory 12V systems).
  • Service replacement 12-volt horn relay to restore horn function.
  • Protects original horn switch by handling high current draw.

Instructions:
  1. Safety first: disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent shorts.

  3. Note or label the wire positions on the existing relay, or take a photo to ensure correct re-connection.
  4. Remove the electrical connectors by pulling straight off the relay terminals; use pliers if needed for stuck connectors.
  5. Unbolt or unclip the old relay from its mounting bracket and remove it from the vehicle.
  6. Compare the new relay terminals to the old relay to confirm matching terminals and orientation.
  7. Install the new relay in the factory mounting location and secure it with the original hardware.
  8. Reconnect each electrical connector to the corresponding terminal; replace damaged connectors or crimps as needed.
  9. Optional: apply a small amount of dielectric grease to terminals to help prevent corrosion.
  10. Reconnect the negative battery cable and test the horn for proper operation. Re-check all connections if the horn does not operate.
