Practice question

A horn circuit fuse blows immediately whenever the horn button is pressed. A digital multimeter set to ohms is connected across the disconnected load side of the fuse terminal and chassis ground. What is the correct diagnostic procedure?

  1. Replace the fuse with a higher amperage fuse to see if it holds
  2. Disconnect the horn assembly connectors one by one and check if the resistance reading to ground rises from zero to infinity
  3. Jumper the fuse terminal directly to the positive battery post to clear the short
  4. Bypass the circuit entirely by running a new power line directly to the horn switch

Answer: B — Disconnect the horn assembly connectors one by one and check if the resistance reading to ground rises from zero to infinity
