Anyone have technical manual from ss2000?, looking to wire something to the board inside and was wondering if anyone had the manual, thanks
Anyone have technical manual from ss2000?>

I was looking for the actual circuit board diagrams so I can wire in a resistor so my honda horn will work , seems like the power isnt enough

I am confused a bit. Why can't you do it externally? The SS2000 is not polarity sensitive with it's horn ring circuit, it will take either 12v or ground. It is a "simple" pass-through circuit. If there is some interfacing problem with your Honda, why would you want to fix it by tinkering with the SS2000? You should be able to work any solutions needed outside the unit.
Per Installation Manual:
Horn Ring.
In order to utilize the horn ring control
of siren tones (Tap II) and other features of the siren,
the following procedure must be performed.
a. Locate the wire that connects the
vehicle horn ring switch to the horn or horn relay.
Cut this wire.
b. See figure 3-5. Splice the white/
yellow power cable wire to the horn ring side of
the wire that was cut in step a. Insulate the splice
with the wire nuts (supplied).

> The horn ring transfer circuit of the siren is

*************************************
c. Splice the white power cable wire
to the horn side of the cut wire. Insulate the splice
with a wire nut.
d. Obtain a SPST relay of sufficient
contact current capacity to activate the vehicle horn.
Refer to figure 3-5 while performing the following
steps.
e. Mount the relay in a suitable
location.
f. Connect the horn side of the wire
cut in step a to the relay contact terminal.
g. Determine the “sense” of the
vehicle’s horn ring activation circuit, i.e., does the
horn circuit require a switched positive voltage or
switched ground for activation.
h. Connect the switched relay
contact terminal to the positive or negative potential
determined in step g.
i. Connect the white power cable
wire to one end of the relay coil.
j. Connect the other end of the relay
coil to the opposite potential of that connected to the
switched relay contact terminal in step h.
