GENERAL INFORMATION
Following are general descriptions of the major
components in the XJ (Cherokee)/YJ (Wrangler) horn
systems. Refer to Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for
complete circuit descriptions and diagrams.
steering column. On YJ models, the horn relay is a
ISO relay installed in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC) near the battery tray. Refer to underside of
PDC cover for relay identification.
One side of the horn relay electromagnetic coil re-
ceives battery voltage at all times. When a horn
switch is depressed, the other side of the relay coil is
grounded. The energized relay coil causes the nor-
mally open relay contacts to close, providing battery
voltage to the horn.
If a problem is encountered with a continuously
sounding horn, it can usually be quickly resolved by
removing the horn relay until further diagnosis is
completed.
HORN SWITCH
XJ
Two horn switches are installed in the steering
wheel, one on each side of the center-mounted driv-
er’s airbag module. When either switch is depressed
it completes a circuit to ground for the coil side of the
horn relay. The steering wheel and steering column
must be properly grounded for the horn switches to
function. The horn switches are only serviced as a set
with their wiring. If either switch should fail, both
switches must be replaced.
YJ
A single switch is installed in the center of the
steering wheel, directly under the horn button. When
the horn button is depressed the switch completes a
circuit to ground for the coil side of the horn relay.
The steering wheel and steering column must be
properly grounded for the horn switch to function.
The horn switch is available for service.
HORNS
On YJ models, a standard single, low-note, dia-
phragm-type horn is mounted and grounded to the
left inner fender shield under the hood. Dual horns
are standard equipment on XJ models. The high-note
diaphragm-type horn is mounted and grounded to
the left radiator closure panel brace behind the front
bumper. The low-note diaphragm-type horn is con-
nected in parallel with the high-note horn and is
mounted and grounded to the right radiator closure
panel brace behind the front bumper.
On XJ models, a cadmium-plated screw is
used to attach the horns to the body. Do not
substitute other types of screws as they may be-
come corroded and cause a loss of ground.
HORN RELAY
On XJ models, the horn relay is a mini-relay in-
stalled in the relay center, which is mounted to the
lower instrument panel reinforcement inboard of the

DIAGNOSIS

WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN AIR-
BAG, REFER TO GROUP 8M - RESTRAINT SYS-
TEMS BEFORE ATTEMPTING STEERING WHEEL
COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. FAILURE
TO TAKE PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT
IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POS-
SIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Inspect fuses (F8 and F16 in PDC on YJ)(11 in
fuseblock module and F14 in PDC on XJ). Replace
fuses, as required.
(2) Remove the horn relay (in the PDC on YJ)(in
the relay center on XJ). See Horn Relay Connec-
tions-XJ (Fig. 1) or Horn Relay Connections-YJ (Fig.
2) and perform the following tests.
The common feed terminal (30) is connected to
battery voltage and should be hot at all times. If bat-
tery voltage is not present at relay cavity 30, check
circuit to fuse (F16 on YJ)(11 on XJ). Repair as re-
quired.
The normally closed terminal (87A) is connected to
terminal 30 in the de-energized position, but is not
used for this application.
The normally open terminal (87) is connected to
the common feed terminal (30) in the energized posi-
tion. This terminal supplies battery voltage to the
horn. There should be continuity between relay cav-
ity 87 and the horn terminal at all times. If not, re-
pair wiring or connections as required.
The coil battery terminal (86) is connected to the
electromagnet in the relay, and battery voltage
should be present at all times. If battery voltage is
not present at relay cavity 86, check circuit to fuse
(F16 on YJ)(11 on XJ). Repair as required.
The coil ground terminal (85) is connected to the
electromagnet in the relay. It is grounded when the
horn switch is depressed. Check for continuity to
ground at relay cavity 85 with the horn switch de-
pressed. If no continuity is found with horn switch
depressed or, if continuity is found with horn switch
released, repair horn switch or wiring as required.
See Horn Switch Remove/Install in this group for ser-
vice procedures.
If all relay connections check OK, proceed to next
step.
(3) With the horn relay still removed, check the
horn relay by performing the following tests.
A relay in the de-energized position should have
continuity between terminal 87A and terminal 30,
and no continuity between terminal 87 and terminal
30.
Resistance value between terminals 85 and 86
(electromagnet) is 75 5 ohms.
Fig. 1 Horn Relay Connections-XJ
Fig. 2 Horn Relay Connections-YJ
Connect a battery to terminals 85 and 86. There
should now be continuity between terminal 87 and
terminal 30.
If relay fails any of the above tests, replace faulty
relay. If relay checks OK, reinstall and proceed to
next step.
(4) Disconnect wiring at horn terminal. Depress
horn switch. There should be battery voltage at the
horn wiring connector. If not, repair wiring to relay.
If OK, proceed to next step.
(5) Measure the resistance between the horn
bracket and a good chassis ground. The meter should
read zero ohms. If not, clean and tighten ground con-
nection between horn mounting screw and bracket. If
OK, replace faulty horn(s).

SERVICE PROCEDURES
HORN REMOVE/INSTALL
XJ
(1) Raise and support the vehicle.
(2) Remove the front underbody splash shield.
(3) Remove horn mounting bolt and horn (Fig. 3).

XJ
(1) Disconnect negative cable from battery and iso-
late.
(2) Using a small screwdriver, remove plastic cover
plug from top outer surface of steering wheel hub
(Fig. 5). Exit vehicle and disarm airbag by reaching
through driver’s side window and turning arming
screw counter-clockwise to its travel limit. This is
done using an 8mm socket and manual drive. DO
NOT USE POWER-DRIVEN TOOLS.
(3) From back side of steering wheel, remove 4
nuts attaching airbag module to steering wheel. This
is done using a 10mm socket and manual drive. DO
NOT USE POWER-DRIVEN TOOLS.
(4) Remove airbag module from steering wheel.
(5) To access horn switch retaining screws, pry out
trim cover buttons on back of steering wheel spokes
directly behind horn switches. Remove retaining
screws.
(6) Disconnect horn switch wires located in the
lower portion of steering wheel hub cavity and re-
move switches from steering wheel.
(7) Reverse removal procedures to install. Tighten
hardware as follows:
airbag module nuts - 9 to 11 N m (80 to 100 in.
lbs.)
airbag arming screw - not to exceed 1 to 1.5 N m
(10 to 15 in. lbs.).
