Re: [T3] Fanfare horn hook up

15 and 30 refer to positions on the headlight switch/column.  30 would be
fuse position #3 (3rd from the left) on your fuse box, this is always hot
power, a wire directly from the battery/regulator.  15 would be fuse position
#1 (1st from the left), which is switched power from the key.

I haven't hooked up a set of fanfare horns before but I have a boxed set
with instructions around here somewhere, I can look later if needed.  I'm
guessing the the 30 connection provides straight raw power to a fanfare
horn relay (should have an in-line fuse too?) and 15 provides power to energize
the relay only when the key is on.

So they should only work when they key is on, same as the normal horn.

Why would you have both horns hooked up?  Maybe I misunderstood that part.
