Out last night and I had to push my horn in anger for the first time when some gimp in a Saxo pulled out in front of me!
The lights seemed to dim very slightly every time I pressed the horn, but no noise!!
Idea's anyone, could it be a fuse? If it was would the lights still dim? Can anyone tell which fuse it is? Tiny Tim will have to draw me a map of where it is as I seem to have trouble counting...........
Erm, now the honest bit, I'm not much of a mechanic, is the horn in front of the radiator, don't laugh!!

Just had a look and there is what looks like a big shiny new red air horn behind the front grill, no other sign of a horn anywhere??
Guessing this is not the alarm, when I press the horn button there is a clicking noise from the engine bay so I am everything may be working and I think I should try the fuse in the first instance, any idea where it is Tim?
