    Well, will trust you and also seems to make sense.
    I checked with my meter for continuity and neither post responded to the screws or the bolt for attachment ....but the posts had continuity to each other.
    I had thought one was power and one was ground...?
    Ok will give it a go.
    Thanks

    I am anything but trustworthy.
    The horn is an electrically isolated circuit.
    Polarity is not an issue.

    The reason for continuity from post to post is that they just go into a wire coil to create a magnet.
