Horn: Description and Operation





Horn

COMPONENT LOCATION









OVERVIEW
The vehicle horns are operated by pressing either of the vertical bars mounted on the steering wheel. Horn switch status is monitored by the CJB via the steering wheel module. When either of the switches is pressed the CJB energizes the horn relay (relay R10), which is located within the BJB. The energized horn relay provides a battery feed to the 2 vehicle horns. Both horns are mounted on brackets and secured to the center of the front cross member, forward of the radiator.
The vehicle horns will also sound if the anti-theft alarm system is activated. If this occurs, operation of the vehicle horns is controlled automatically by the CJB. For additional information, refer to Anti-Theft - Active Anti-Theft - Active
