Warning Horn Signals
Most faults will cause the warning horn circuit to activate. How the warning horn activates depends on how serious the problem
is. There are four warning horn states:
•
Caution ‑ horn signal varies with product line and calibration. Minimal guardian.
•
Warning ‑ horn signal varies with product line and calibration.
•
Severe ‑ horn is beeping constantly.
•
Critical ‑ horn is beeping constantly and guardian will be at forced idle.
In addition, depending on the gauge package, there will be warning icons and fault messages on the dash mounted gauges.
