DTC Descriptors
DTC B2750 01
- Horn Relay Secondary Circuit Short to Battery

DTC B2750 02
- Horn Relay Secondary Circuit Short to Ground

DTC B2750 04
- Horn Relay Secondary Circuit Open

Diagnostic Fault Information





Circuit/System Description

The BCM provides a ground for the Horn PCB 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 horn relay control circuit.

B2750 02

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

B2750 04

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

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

B2750 01, B2750 04

The horn will be inoperative.

B2750 02

The horn will sound continuously until the horn is disconnected or when the horn overheats and becomes inoperative.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The DTC clears when the fault is no longer detected.
* The current DTC will become history when the request for the output is removed.
* The history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, command the Horn Relay ON and OFF with the scan tool. The horn should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X5 harness connector at the K9 BCM.
2. Test for greater than 9 V between the control circuit terminal 19 and ground.

• If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the X50A fuse block-underhood.

3. Connect a 15 A fused jumper wire between the control circuit terminal 19 and ground, the P12 horn should sound.

• If the P12 horn does not sound, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the X50A fuse block-underhood.

4. If all circuits test normal, replace the K9 BCM.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
