The body control module (BCM) controls the horn operation, when the horn switch is pressed, it closes a switch pulling the horn signal circuit low. When the BCM detects the drop in voltage in the horn switch signal circuit, it energises the Horn relay which provides B+ voltage to the horn control circuit, sounding the horn.
