Default Horn Replacement - Need help

I'm trying to replace my Civic 1999 horn with some Acura TL High/Low horns

i took apart my front and i got to the horn, but i noticed that the Civic horn has only 1 prong, while the acura has 2

for the civic i figured out that the prong is the positive, where the power goes, and the horn grounds itself to the chassis (from the bracket).

I assumed for the acura horn, it's 2 prongs; one for positive, one for negative.

i ground one prong to the chassis, and one connected to the power.

no luck.

i checked the fuse still works.

Both the civic and the acura uses 12 V / 3 amp.

Anyone got any ideaS?

i was using this as a guide.

It may need two power wires (one for the high tone and one for the low tone) while the ground may be the same as the original (chassis.) Just an idea.
