INTRODUCTION
The vehicle horns are operated by pressing the center of the steering wheel. Two horns are fitted to the vehicle; a high tone horn and a low tone horn. Voltage supply to the horns is controlled by the horn relay, which is energised when the horn switch is pressed.

The horn relay is incorporated within the Battery Junction Box (BJB) and when energised provides a supply to both horns simultaneously. Circuit protection is provided by fuse 10 (15A), which is located in the BJB.

The horns are mounted on a bracket, which is secured to the center of the front bumper beam, and form part of the antitheft system.
