Diagnostic Test

1.TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION

With the scan tool, record and erase DTC's

Operate the Horn Switch several times.

Cycle the ignition from on to off 3 times and leave on.

With the scan tool, read DTC's.

Does the scan tool display B2338 - HORN CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

2.HORN FUSE

Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the Horn fuse.

Does the test light illuminate and was the fuse OK?

No

- Replace the horn fuse if open and check for a short to ground on the Horn Relay Output circuit or correct the open B(+) circuit to the fuse.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

Yes

- Go To 3

3.OPEN FUSED B(+) TO RELAY





Remove the Horn Relay from the PDC.

Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the Fused B(+) circuit at the relay connector.

Does the test light illuminate?

No

- Replace the Power Distribution Center.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

Yes

- Go To 4

4.HORN RELAY

Install a known good relay in place of the Horn Relay.

With the scan tool erase DTC's

Operate the Horn Switch several times.

Cycle the ignition from on to off 3 times and leave on.

With the scan tool, read DTC's.

Does the scan tool display B2338 - HORN CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN?

No

- Replace the original Horn Relay.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

Yes

- Go To 5

5.(X4)HORN RELAY CONTROL OPEN





Measure the resistance of the (X4)Horn Relay Control circuit from the relay connector to FCM connector.

Is the resistance below 3.0 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the Front Control Module.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Replace the Power Distribution Center.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
