Default Horn stopped working already. 2005 PC

I posted previously (7 posts below) regarding my horn not working. After replacing the horn and the button I only used it a few times to test it. It stopped working again today. When I pushed the button the last time, it made a soft murmur and then nothing. The original horn did exactly the same thing.
Any ideas? Does it use a relay?
TIA,
Gary

No relay. Goes direct from battery pack, through fuse, to horn switch, to horn.

what horn did you install?

A small 12v. "car" horn that bought at an auto parts store. It looks similar to the one I took out.

That's what I think too.
I'll check the button first and then I'll pull the cowl off again and check voltage everywhere. Any other suggestions on what to check or look for?
Thanks,
Gary

I guess you were right again! The problem was the fuse/fuse connector. It is located at the outside corner of the bottom of the battery box. Right where battery acid can drip. The connector and fuse were corroded by battery acid. An easy fix once you know where to look.
Just think about it: I removed the cowl (twice), replaced the horn, replaced the horn button and tested for voltage in a lot of places and all this time the problem was right there easy to see (if I would have looked)
Thanks for your help.
