    1. Measure the resistance between the (X3) Horn Switch circuit and the (X903) Horn Switch Return circuit at the harness connector to the horn switch.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  5
  5. RIGHT STEERING SWITCH 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Replace the Right Steering Switch in accordance with the Service Information.

    4. Press and release the Horn Switch several times.
    5. With the Scan Tool, Clear Stored DTCs in the Steering Control Module.
    6. With the Scan Tool, select Data Display and view the Horn switch data.
    7. While monitoring the Horn switch data, press and release the Horn Switch several times.

      Does the Horn switch data change from Set to Not Set when the switch is pressed and released?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  6
  6. STEERING CONTROL MODULE (SCM) 
    1. View repair.

      Repair 

  7. INTERMITTENT HORN SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT/PERFORMANCE DTC 
    1. The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
    2. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
    3. While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
    4. Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.

      Were any problems found?
