I just bought a dixie horn for my truck and it plays way to fast,is there anyway to slow down or adjust it? thanx

Ty

Try smaller air line from the compressor to the horn, or putting a ziptie on he line to restrict it a bit.

Do all of the hoses have to be the same length? Most of them are, except 2, 1 was really short so i put the excess tube i had on so 2 of them are a few inches longer than the rest.

Ty

Do you have a picture of what you are talking about? Im not sure exactly how they are hooked up, so I was just throwing a idea out there to restrict the air flow a bit.

I dont think its a problem w/ airflow,but just that the compressor spins so fast that b4 you let go of the buttin,its cycled thru the sound like 3 times. I think i may try putting a rheostat in the power line to put some draw on the system to maybe take some power from it.

where did you hook up the power to it?

rebelfoxrider

from battery to a relay,the relay to compressor. then the switch is hooked to the relay also. and ofcourse the switch is grounded and the compressor is grounded to the negative battery terminal.

Ty

It sounds like you got it wired up right.

Have you tried restricting thre flow yet? 5 zip ties only cost a coupple of cents, and would be easy to take off if they dont work.

Followed the diagram exactly. The company told me to oil it but if you ask me,wouldn't that make it go faster yet? I think i'll end up buyin longer hoses and cut them all to the same length and go from there. thanx for all y'alls help.

i have a feelin that oiling it might help to... i dont know though... i seems to me like you need less power to the compressor
