Hi there

The Horns are behind the o/s/f fog lamp area, removing the under tray will reveal.

Hi Andy, how have you checked the wiring? A visual inspection isn't enough, you need to get a multimeter on the plug and check for 12V

If you don't have 12V at the plug (obviously when the button is pressed), then you'll need to check the relay is functioning and after that continuity to and from the horn switches. The common cause for this is the clock spring unit breaking down, so there is no continuity to/from the buttons.
