Circuit Operation
Battery positive voltage is applied at all times to the horn relay coil and the horn relay switch. Pressing the horn switch applies ground to the horn relay control circuit. When the horn relay control circuit is grounded, the horn relay is energized and
battery positive voltage is applied to the horn through the horn control circuit. The horn will sound as long as ground is applied to the horn relay control circuit.
