Ignition OFF, connect a test lamp between the horn fuse test point and ground.
Press and release the horn switch. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate or remains illuminated at all times, refer to HORN SWITCH CIRCUIT TEST .
Ignition ON, command the horn ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the control circuit terminal 18 at the BCM for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
Connect a 15A fused jumper wire between the horn fused test point and B+. The horn should sound and emit a clear and even tone.
