Section 43 (Horn System): Horn: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Dakota and 2003 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The dual electromagnetic diaphragm-type horns are standard equipment on this model. Both horns are mounted on a single bracket that is secured to the front of the left vertical member of the radiator support, just behind the radiator grille and forward of the radiator. The high-note horn is connected in parallel with the low-note horn. The horns are connected to the vehicle electrical system through the headlamp and dash wire harness. Each horn is grounded through its wire harness connector and a ground circuit to an eyelet terminal secured by a ground screw located on the right front inner fender behind the right headlamp, and receives battery current through the closed contacts of the horn relay.

Both horns and the mounting bracket are serviced as a single unit. The horns cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, the entire horn and bracket unit must be replaced.
