extra Horn? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

i was looking at my engine bay today, and i noticed an extra plug hanging off from the horn wires

i check and both plugs will fit into the horn and they both work.

as it turns out, i only have one horn on my car...
i thought i had two, since my old Gen3 had two

now, if i were to buy another horn and attach it there aswell, can i run both at the same time?

i always thought one was for the horn, and the other was for the alarm

does anyone know how loud (db) and what frequency (Hz) the stock Toyota horns are?

also if i attach another horn, is there anything else i should worry about when i do so? like fuses etc?

you checked behind your drivers turn signal right? I have a horn there, sorry cant tell by pics what im looking at.

i havent checked there, but i pulled out the plug on this horn, and pressed the button, and no noise...
so i assume this would be the only one on the car

the pictures are ment to be of the extra plug that is hanging off the horn cable

i checked and it is able to power that horn aswell.

so i assume it is possible to install a second one in there

If I rememebr right there were two horns on some older camry's and they were different freqencies or tones whatever you want call it. One was a little higher and one lower. Not sure how they work on the Gen 5 though. I would imagine you could hook another horn up with no problem and jsut let it go. Maybe they do that for different markets or something, ie, the harness is the same for all cars no matter hwere they are sold but some are required to be louder or something so you can add one at the factory if needed. ????? Maybe, jsut an idea.

Oh i gotcha. Yea. I unplug my hair at the grill and I press it. Sound slike a clown horn is going off. The high prequency horn is behind my driver side turn signal on the bumper and the low frequncy is at the grill.

and btw.. i just relized thats your is a gen5. ^above will do you now good^

I have a gen 5 here, 2 horns. ill look into it later

yeah i noticed the US Spec Gen5's had 2 horns...

apparently the Aus Spec Gen5's only have 1

so i might go get another one, and just attach it on there too

The ES's have an extra horn mounted.

Toyota simply re-uses electrical wiring. You can find a bunch of stuff in the Camry platform not connected, or plugged in that you can in the ES/Windom's & vice-versa.
