Horn: Description and Operation

INTRODUCTION

WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-BAG, REFER TO AIR BAGS AND SEAT BELTS/AIR BAGS FOR STEERING WHEEL OR COLUMN REMOVAL PROCEDURES.

Horn System:

The horn circuit consists of a horn switch, horn relay, and horn. The horn circuit feed is from the fuse to the horn relay in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). The PDC is mounted on the battery tray. When the horn switch is depressed, it completes the ground circuit. The horn relay coil closes contacts and allows current to flow to the horn. The horn is grounded to the headlamp ground connection.
