UPDATE: just been out to my car to check the fuse, took the fuse out it wasn't blown so put it back in, checked the horn again and it worked then it stopped working and now all i can hear is a clicking noise from the fuse box under the bonnet when i press the horn.

Try a different fuse just to be sure. My stereo stopped working once checked the fuse it looked fine but when I swapped next day it worked fine.

Tried that aswell swapped it with two fuses that was the same one (15a) but used for different things with no luck, it just clicks in the fuse box Sad

Wires will have corroded and snapped on the connector. Very common

One of the connectors on one of the horns is probably corroded.
