GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR
BAG, SEE GROUP 8M, RESTRAINT SYSTEMS FOR
STEERING WHEEL OR COLUMN REMOVAL PROCE-
DURES.
The horn circuit consists of a horn switch, horn re-
lay, and horns. The horn circuit feed is from the fuse
box to the number 1 terminal on the horn relay.
When the horn switch is depressed, this completes
the circuit to ground. This activates the horn relay
and an set of contacts in the relay to close, which al-
lows current to flow to the horn(s). The horn ground
wire is attached to the headlamp ground screw (Fig.
1).
TESTING HORN SYSTEM
HORNS WILL NOT SOUND
If the horns do not sound, check for a blown horn
fuse in the fuse block. If the fuse is blown, replace it
with the same fuse type. If the horns fail to sound
and the new fuse blows when depressing the horn
switch, a short circuit in the horn or the horn wiring
between the fuse terminal and the horn is responsi-
ble. If the fuse is good, disconnect wire connector at
horn. Using an test lamp, connect one lead to the
negative terminal and the other to the positive ter-
minal (Fig. 2). Depress the horn switch, the test
lamp should illuminate. If not connect the test lamp wire to a good ground and depress the horn switch. If
test lamp lights inspect ground wire circuit and re-
pair as needed.
If the test lamp fails to illuminate, check for a de-
fective horn relay. Substituting a known good horn
relay in the circuit. If the test lamp illuminates
when depressing the horn switch, the original relay
is defective. If the test lamp fails to illuminate with
a known good relay, unplug that relay. Connect a
jumper wire from the battery terminal to the horn
terminal on the relay terminal board (Fig. 3, 4, or 5).
If the test lamp connected in place of the horns, fails
to illuminate an open circuit in the wiring between
the relay terminal and the horn switch is at fault re-
pair as necessary.
HORNS SOUND CONTINUOUSLY
CAUTION: Continuous sounding of horns may
cause relay to fail.
Should the horns sound continuously, unplug the
horn relay from the terminal board inside the pas-
senger compartment. Plug in a known good relay. If
the horns stop blowing, relay is defective and must
be replaced. Should the horns still sound, proceed as
follows: Connect one voltmeter lead to battery termi-
nal on relay board and the other lead to switch ter-
minal. Refer to Figs. 6, 7, or 8. Voltmeter will

(1) Be sure that the module has a battery feed
from the 20 Amp breaker in cavity 1 of the black
connector. Also affected would be the optical horn
and the stop lamps. (2) Be sure that the module has an ignition feed
from 5 Amp fuse in cavity 8 of the black connector.
Also affected would be the body computer, instru-
ment cluster and message center. (3) Be sure that the module has a ground from the
right side cowl behind the body computer to the cav-
ity 5 of the black connector. (4) Be sure that you are supplying a good ground
to the programming wire. (5) If the above circuits are good, replace the Re-
ceiver Module. CONDITION: Doors can be locked or unlocked with
the Keyless Entry transmitter. But the doors will not
lock. The Vehicle Theft Alarm system will not arm,
when using only the power door LOCK switch in the
driver's door. (1) Be sure you have not left key in the ignition
column lock cylinder. (2) If step 1 is OK, check the Key in Lock switch
circuit in the steering column for a short to ground. (3) In this problem the body computer controls the
LOCK function. Be sure that it is providing a battery
voltage output to the door lock relay. The door lock
relay controls the door lock motors. CONDITION: Doors will lock but Vehicle Theft
System will not arm when using the transmitter. (1) The Keyless Entry Receiver Module controls
the door lock signal to the door lock relay. The door
lock relay controls the door lock motors. Check for
battery voltage at cavity 10 of the Theft Alarm mod-
ule from the Receiver module. (2) If voltage is OK, replace Receiver module.
CONDITION: All doors except driver's door will
lock with the transmitter. (1) Test the driver's door output of the Receiver
Module for a ground. (2) If there is no ground at the pin, replace the Re-
ceiver module. (3) If there is a ground at the output, replace the
door lock motor. CONDITION: Only driver's door will lock with the
transmitter.
² Repair ground circuit to unlock relay
² Replace unlock relay
CONDITION: Doors do not lock with the transmit-
ter, but still get horn CHIRP that indicates that they
did lock. Replace Receiver module. CONDITION: Doors will lock with the transmitter
but there is no horn CHIRP. (1) Press horn button, listen horn sound.
(2) If the horn sounded, change horn relay. (3) Still no CHIRP, check continuity between the
horn relay and the receiver output pin. Repair as
necessary. (4) Still no horn CHIRP, replace the receiver mod-
ule. (5) If using a DRB II, refer to Body Diagnostic Pro-
cedures.

nect wire connector. (5) Remove two screws attaching the Remote Key-
less entry Module to bracket. (6) Remove two screws attaching the security mod-
ule to bracket. (7) To installation reverse above procedures.

(1) Remove lower right instrument panel silencer.
(2) Remove glove box and ash receiver module.
(3) Remove three screws attaching the mounting
bracket to instrument panel. (4) Lower bracket and module assembly, to discon-
nect wire connectors. (5) Remove two screws attaching the Lamp Outage
Module to bracket. (6) Remove two screws attaching the security mod-
ule to bracket. (7) To installation reverse above procedures.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
The power door lock inhibit system prevents the
doors from being locked using the power door locks
when either of two conditions occur: (1) The key is in the ignition switch and any of the
doors are open. The ignition switch does not have to
be ON. (2) The key is in the ignition switch and the head-
lamp are on.
AC, AG, AJ AND AY BODIES
With the ignition switch in the ON or OFF position
and the driver's door open the Body Controller will
ignore the command to lock the power door locks.
Once the key is removed, or the driver's door is
closed, the Body Controller will allow the power door
locks to lock. Refer to Body Diagnostic Procedure
Manual for further testing procedures.

Uses a power door lock inhibit relay. The relay is
located above the glove box compartment.
INHIBIT RELAY
(1) Using a voltmeter, test for battery voltage at
pin 4. If no voltage check fuse 15 (Fig. 13). (2) Using a ohmmeter, check for continuity to
ground at pin 8. If no continuity to ground, check in-
strument panel ground. (3) To check pin 5:(a) The key is in the ignition switch and a door
is open. (b) The key is in the ignition switch and the
headlamps are ON. (c) Test for continuity to ground.
(d) If not, the relay contact is open or the relay is
being energized when it should not be. Pin 5 feeds
the ground from the relay to door lock switch.
(4) To check pin 6: (a) The key is in the ignition switch and a door
is open. (b) The key is in the ignition switch and the
headlamps are ON. (c) Test for continuity to ground.
(d) If not, check key in switch, headlamps on
switch and/or door jamb switches. Pin 6, feeds
ground from key in switch to the relay.
