Horn Operation
The horn switch consists of a set of contacts separated by springs. One
side is connected to ground and the other side is connected to the horn
signal circuit. When the driver airbag is pressed, it pushes down on
the switch, collapsing the springs and allowing the contacts to touch.
When the contacts touch, it closes the circuit through the clockspring
to the BCM , and provides a ground signal to the BCM . The BCM then provides voltage to the horn, enabling the horn to sound.

Chart: NVH.
To maximize tire performance, inspect for signs of incorrect
inflation and uneven wear, which may indicate a need for balancing,
rotation or front suspension alignment.
Correct tire pressure and driving techniques have an
important influence on tire life. Heavy cornering, excessively rapid
acceleration and unnecessary sharp braking increase tire wear.
