Hey guys first post here, I've had an 06 Yaris rs since November, and the horn stopped working recently, I always thought it was pathetic compared to my Tacoma which isn't great either, anyways I had ordered a set of shaprtones for the Tacoma, but since the Yaris horn is no good(checked relay, and fuse hooked horn directly to power and nothing) I wanna use the sharps since I've been run into the shoulder about 10 times in the last two weeks alone. Has anyone run these? I've seen some old supertone writeups, but just wanted to see some setups

Can't tell you much about horns, but welcome to yarisworld. Is your RS a 3-door or 5-door? I'm sure someone will answer your query.

Make sure you've got a solid ground connection. The horn uses the radiator supports as the path back to the battery and any corrosion between the sheet metal parts will mess with that. If you have a multimeter, check for voltage between the ground terminal on the battery and the positive side of the horn.

I had a pair of Sharptones on my old '99 Tercel, bloody hell they were loud. Not sure I want to put them on the Yaris yet.
