I've had no horns for about two years now. It originally started with the low tone horn, it would sound shorted when pushed. Eventually it would no longer work, only the higher tone was working. Then one day it stopped as well. Dealer could not find what was wrong so I gave up. I replaced the relay/fuse/horns/clock spring contact in steering wheel and measured current flow at the wires that connect to the horns themselves and there is no current now. I think the horn wires are cut somewhere after the relay. I am going to once and for all trace these down when I have time and post what I've found. On a side note I have a pack of Dixie air horns I'm going to install that should compensate. I'm going to own a Hazzard county Beetle!!!
