Hi mate, if you can hear a clicking sound, that is your horn relay, so everything inside the car is working correctly, I would think its the horn itself or the connection on it, try checking for power at the horn. You should either have one or two wires, one will be power when the button is pressed the other(if fitted) will be earth last resort sometimes a sharp tap will bring it to life,

You will have to locate the horn, try googling for its location, take the wires off, and check connection and for power, tapping the horn wouldn't set off your airbag mate, unless you used a sledge hammer lol 🔨.

Be prepared to jump out of your skin as if it starts working when your close to it is quite a fright

This talks about changing a horn. Hope yours is in the same location

Bought an OEM duel-Tone horn at S$26 and replacement takes about 25 mins or less.

1. Pull out the black cover with horizontal fins (passenger side), under the head light.
2. Pull it out from the top portion, due to flexible clips.
3. Unscrew the existing horn and unplug the positive and negative cables.
4. Prepare/slice the existing cables for a connection to 2 positives and negatives cables using connectors and clamps(this step is not necessary for single tone replacement)
5. Insert each of the cables onto the connector on the 2 tone horn.
6. Place the 2 Tones Horn in a inverted V, onto the screw fixture.
7. Reverse the process of the cover.
8. Single tone (step 4 is not required)
