  1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K9 Body Control Module
  3. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
  4. Momentarily connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Control circuit terminal 18 X5 & Ground

    Verify the component turns On and Off when connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire: P13 Horn Assembly

    • If the component does not turn On and OffΒ 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire(s)
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: X3 @ X50A Fuse Block - Underhood
    3. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 18 X5 @ Control module harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 1 V
    5. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    6. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 18 X5 @ Control module harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    7. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 18 X5 @ Control module harness & Control circuit terminal H3 X3 @ Fuse Block Harness
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Test or replace the component: X50A Fuse Block - Underhood
