DTC Descriptor

DTC B2750 00

-
Horn Relay Coil Circuit

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The body control module (BCM) controls the HORN relay by grounding the control circuit of the horn relay coil energizing the relay. When the HORN relay is energized, the horn relay contacts close applying voltage through the HORN fuse and the horn control circuit to the horns.

Conditions for Running the DTC

When the output is actively being requested by the BCM.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The BCM detects a short to ground, open, or short to voltage in the horn relay control circuit for approximately 125 milliseconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The BCM disables the output to the HORN relay until the next ignition cycle.

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

Command the horns ON and OFF with the scan tool. The horns should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the underhood fuse block.

2. Connect a test lamp between B+ and the control circuit terminal K3.

3. Press and release the horn switch. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.

• If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground or a sticking horn switch. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

• If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage, an open high resistance, or a horn switch which is not closing. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

4. If all circuits test normal, replace the underhood fuse block.
