    Umm Viagra. Nah, if you pull the wires off and touch them together does the horn work easily then.
    If so, just go to the wreckers and see if you can buy another horn unit.

    on my car the horn pin was warn out. its the spring loaded bronzey thing which makes contact with the ring on the back of the steering wheel. U cant just replace the pin though, you have to replace the platics surround aswell.Go to wreckers for a non worn out one. I could actually see bronze filings arround the pin.

    just give it a quick hit with your hands (steering wheel) downwards,as VN's steering columns are renowned for just popping up slightly,leaving a gap between horn contacts..give it a sharp hit at about 10 oclock and 2 oclock postion (left hand 10 oclock...right hand 2 oclock..give that a go and see what happens....
