97' Wrangler Horn Problems..
 
Hello,
I have checked everything I can think of to get my horn working
without any luck. New relay , new fuse and even swapped horns with a
buddy of mine to make sure they worked. They did.
I had him press the horn on the steering wheel while I held my head
close to the relay. I heard no click's.
I also looked at the wire in the steering column to make sure it
didn't come loose it was ok. I didn't want to attempt screwing with
the part in front of the handbag. Leave that for someone else.

Can anyone think of any other ideas to try?

TIA!!!!

Re: 97' Wrangler Horn Problems..
 
Did you check the fuses in the Power Distribution Center and in the Junction
block?

Is there power getting to the relay? (I see the relay is new but that does
not mean it works)

Info from manual below:

CONDITION POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTION

BOTH HORNS

INOPERATIVE

1. Faulty fuse. 1. Check the fuses in the Power Distribution

Center (PDC) and the Junction Block (JB).

Replace the fuse and repair the shorted circuit or

component, if required.

2. Faulty horn relay. 2. Refer to Horn Relay for the proper horn relay

diagnosis and testing procedures. Replace the

horn relay or repair the open horn relay circuit, if

required.

3. Faulty horn switch. 3. Refer to Horn Switch for the proper horn switch

diagnosis and testing procedures. Replace the

horn switch or repair the open horn switch circuit,

if required.

4. Faulty horns. 4. Refer to Horn for the proper horn diagnosis

and testing procedures. Replace the horns

Re: 97' Wrangler Horn Problems..
 
Thanks for the quick reply.. I changed the sue in the PDC and chenged
the relay with a working one that came from another working slot.
Is the junction box the one behind the dash.. or somewhere else. The
only fuses I know of are behind the dash and in the PDC by the
battery.

Thanks!!

Re: 97' Wrangler Horn Problems..
 
The FSM doesn't list the fuse diagrams like in the owners manual does. We
need a Wrangler owner to go out to the garage and take a look.
