Horn System (Service Information): Horn: Description: Description

Electromagnetic diaphragm-type horns are standard equipment on this vehicle. Vehicles equipped with a single horn have a low note trumpet-style horn secured by a mounting bracket to the back of the front bumper reinforcement to left frame rail mounting flange, forward of the left front wheel house splash shield. Vehicles equipped with dual horns add a single high note trumpet-style horn secured by a mounting bracket to the back of the front bumper reinforcement to right frame rail mounting flange, forward of the right front wheel house splash shield. With the exception of their unique notes, the two horns are nearly identical except for symmetrically opposite molded plastic trumpet formations.

Vehicles manufactured for sale in domestic markets are equipped with a single horn system, while those manufactured for sale in many export markets are equipped with a dual horn system. Each horn in either horn system is connected to the vehicle electrical system through dedicated take outs and connectors of the headlamp and dash wire harness. Each horn may is fitted with either two male spade terminals or a single sealed two-pin connector, dependent upon the requirements of the market for which the vehicle is manufactured.

Each horn is serviced as a unit with the appropriate mounting bracket. These horns cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective or damaged they must be replaced with a new unit.
