Those little black vevor (go by many different brand names) are setup with a false pressure switch and pressure gauge. I found this out because my pressure switch failed and I bought a random replacement online that matches the exact specs, 90 off and 120 on. Upon switching it on, it never shut off and the pressure gauge pegged past the final reading of 180 psi. At first I thought I bought a faulty pressure switch, but then I hooked the pressure witch up to my full sized, garage compressor and it broke continuity at exactly 120 psi, as advertised. I then removed the pressure gauge from the vevor compressor and also hooked it to my garage compressor. At 120 psi, it pegged it again well past 180 psi. After doing all the calculations, I found out that the original pressure switch that comes on it is a 70psi Off and 50 psi on. Vevor obviously puts a fabricated gauge on and the pressure switch has the label missing that tells you the on/off psi. I also put the new gauge on the vevor to see how high it could actually compress and it could not go higher than 115psi...a far cry from the 150psi max rating, they claim.
I like the way you have your setup. I have a 17 Silverado. I'd like to know how you setup yours in detail. Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video.
Horns are different sizes for different pitches. The longer they are the lower the pitch/frequency. The shorter they are the higher the pitch/frequency.
What do you mean you don't know what goes in that empty spot?? That's where the truck battery goes! Lol...where is your battery if it isn't on that tray??
Your right my friend that spot is for a battery if my truck was diesel.. but sad to say it's gas a subscribe educated me on that since it's my first chevy 2500hd
Yea once you have the red wire in the cab just fine any power sources and you'll be good as for the ground my sure you ground in on the body of the car its better that why.
I have no idea what I'm doing i just got the same set up and the install guy hasn't hit me back if your still in concord I'm in antioch maybe I could pay you to do the install I could drive to concord no problem
Radio has 2 power wires one that turns it on and one is constant power for radio memory ... mine was connected to constant power wire s relay was a must
How did u finish the wiring for the horn and if I don’t have the fuse conector but i got one from autozone what voltage would u recommend on the fuse I should use , you she bout connect to the compressor power line to the radio where exactly to the radio . Just wana know where u end up connecting the horn with to and the compressor power wire too
(Compressor) black wire ground.... Red wire with 12v fuse connected to power wire on radio.... (Horn) Black wire ground... Red wire connected with cigarette lighter power wire.... Note: make sure all power wires only have power when car/trunk is on, if not you'll kill the battery...

@@SimpleSickBuilds the compressor states to keep it away from water. I installed it under the driver side door but I cut out a piece of sheet metal and screwed it down to minimize the amount of water it will encounter. Something is better than nothing.

Hey man i just bought this. Is it worth it. I keep getting mixed opinions. I know is cheaper than a texas horn. But for the price is it good and dose it still work
Mine was some cheap ebay one had no brand name on it and the kit is off my truck right know unfortunately im in the process of buying a hornblasters the big ones 💪🇺🇸
You're in danger of fire. Your wires are too thin. 10 ga is good 8ga would be better. Run fuse right off the battery, run that to a 30 amp relay. From the relay to the compressor. The relay has four pins, if you need help I'll tell you how to wire it. The compressor draws a lot of amps and will melt wires, I don't want that to happen to you.
Much appreciated brother thank you im going to rewire everything system currently pulled out ... thank you for not leaving a nasty comment and actually offering to help much love best wishes for you and your fam for 2022 🤙
@@SimpleSickBuilds I should have just shared this in my first comment. Go to your local auto parts store and buy two things. The first is a 4 pin 30 amp relay. Second is a heavy duty fuse holder and a 30 amp fuse. First disconnect battery. The relay has 4 pins, connect your new fuse to pin 30 with the other end connected to the battery. Pin 87 goes to the positive wire on your compressor, heavy gauge wire should be used to do this. Pin 86 is where you will bring in the positive wire from your switch. Finally pin 85 is your ground. Good luck and happy new year.
Final thought. If you connect a T-fitting with an air chuck to the brass fitting that sends air to the horns you will create an on board air system. You can use this to inflate your tires. Always use this with the engine running.
If you want to do it like mine this is how 1)On the Compressor run the black wire to any ground. 2) red wire on compressor run it to a switch and then from the switch to a + anything that gives power when you turn the key on the on position ( like the stereo) And just do the same with the wire from the horns .. hope this was helpful
When you run the red wire from the compressor to the switch no need to add anything but from the switch to the power yea run a fuse ... so do that for both and youll be good 👌
@@salochoa89 both compressor and horns have red and black wires so just run each wire to a power sources and black wires to ground and you'll be good to go👍
I’m confused on how to set up the wires from the horn they are both black. So do I just ground one then connect the other one to the red wire on the compressor?
🤔 one wire should have been red ... but it should be black wire to ground and the red wire to a + with a switch so you can turn the horn off and on ... the compressor same thing black wire to ground and red to + .. hope this helps
@@JoseCruz-mq3sg the black wires on both the horns and compressor can go to any ground on the car as in the chassis.. as for the red power wire it can connect to yours stereo or cigarette lighter something that has power only when car is on so it wont drain your battery just make sure theres no power running through them.. hope this helps👍

Any issues with the compressor overheating being that its under the hood?
I seen the answer below. Thanks, I have the same model truck and that extra battery tray was exactly where I wanted to put it. Gonna try it out.

Horns are different sizes for different pitches. The longer they are the lower the pitch/frequency. The shorter they are the higher the pitch/frequency.
Thanks for the knowledge man👍
I appreciate the information on video content. Appreciate it!
That empty spot is where a battery normally goes, if you had a diesel. Diesels have two batteries.
Thanks for the knowledge I didn't even have a clue what it was for👌
Great video , I bought the same kit and put it in my truck also . I took me about four hours to install.
Thanks.. really cant beat the price for how good it sounds.
Awesome 😎 😂. Good job good video
Plummer’s tape or Teflon tape
Might wanna put a momentary switch on the horn button. That way you don't hit it accidently and it stays on
Didn't thinking about that good idea
That’s empty spot is for a second battery it’s a Chevy/GMC thing. And it’s called pipe tape or Teflon tape that’s used for sealing threads.

Hey man, i wanted to know has the compressor overheated or stopped working being in the chasis with the heat around it?
Compressor is working great no issues with it being inside the engine bay👍
@@SimpleSickBuilds that was my question, it says compressors should be away from heat. How's it holding up in engine with heat.
they are stacked like that because the size of the horn detemines the pitch.....
How many times can u hit the horn on 1 full tank of air???
Sound great!!!
To be honest not really sure i hit it about 3 times back to back once ... its good for the price but a bigger tank would be cool but it works for me 👌
1s u have the 2 red wires. In the cab do u have 2 get power sources and just get ground from anything
Yea once you have the red wire in the cab just fine any power sources and you'll be good as for the ground my sure you ground in on the body of the car its better that why.
