Normal Operation
The horn relay is controlled by the horn switch. The horn relay is grounded through the horn switch by circuit 6 (YE/LG). When the horn switch is pressed, the horn relay control circuit 6 (YE/LG) is grounded through circuit 57 (BK). The relay is then closed causing B+ voltage to be applied to circuit 1 (DB), sounding the horns. The SJB can also supply a ground for the horn relay coil.

Possible Causes
- circuit 6 (YE/LG) shorted to ground
- circuit 1 (DB) shorted to power
- clockspring
- horn relay
- horn switch
- horn switch harness
- SJB
