HORNNNNNNN!

This happened on mine after i had the horn off the car for a while, with nothing attached to the wires, has something similar happened to yours or did it just happen suddenly? :dontknow:

If the relay is clicking, then that side of the circuit is working.
If the new horn still doesn't work, then you need to examine the other circuit itself - the wiring on this circuit is notorious for getting tatty, being down by the road in the salt and rain, etc. If the wiring is poor, it can lead to a voltage drop as mentioned above.

Do a few continuity tests between these points, and if it is all connected, then the connections and/or last few inches of wire at the horns is probably dropping the voltage too much, due to being corroded - replace the cruddy-looking wire sections and/or clean/replace the connectors.

Also make sure that the earth lead at the bottom of the steering columnm is clean and making a decent earth.
