DTC Descriptors

DTC B2750
- Horn Relay Secondary Circuit

For symptom byte information refer to: Symptom Byte List Symptom Byte List

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The Body Control Module (BCM) provides a ground for the Horn printed circuit board relay within the underhood fuse block. The underhood fuse block will then provide B+ voltage to the horn control circuit, sounding the horn.

Conditions for Running the DTC

When the horn output is actively being requested by the BCM.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B2750 01

The BCM detects a short to voltage in the relay coil control circuit.

B2750 02

The BCM detects a short to ground in the relay coil control circuit.

B2750 04

The BCM detects an open/high resistance in the relay coil control circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* If B2750 01 or B2750 04 is current, the horns will be inoperative.

* If B2750 02 is current, the horns will sound continuously until the horn is disconnected or when the horns overheat and becomes inoperative.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.

* When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will be a history DTC.

* A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify the P12A Horn-High Note and the P12B Horn-Low Note turns On and Off when commanding the Horn Relay On and Off with a scan tool.

If the P12A Horn-High Note and the P12B Horn-Low do not turn On and Off
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If the P12A Horn-High Note and the P12B Horn-Low turn On and Off

3. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the X50A Fuse Block-Underhood.

2. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 25 and B+, ignition ON.

3. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Horn Relay On and Off with a scan tool.

If the test lamp is always OFF

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.

If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

If less than 1 V

3. Ignition OFF.

4. Test for less than 2 ohms in the control circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, replace the K9 Body Control Module.

If the test lamp is always ON

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.

If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.

If the test lamp turns ON and OFF

4. Replace the X50A Fuse Block-Underhood.
