Fix it.

A louder endcan just means failing the mot for two things.

That might be an idea, my only attempt so far is spraying contact cleaner on everything.

Does the horn do nothing at all or just a "clicky" sound,

do you feel some movement inside when you touch it while operating on/off ?

There is a small screw on the rearside of the horn, mostly covered with a dab of paint sealant,

this adjusts the membrane, ever tried to turn this in / out ?

No idea, I've not had the chance to try without my helmet on and earplugs in, that'll be this morning's investigation.

I should probably go and look for/at he horn itself Also, as yet I've just fiddled with the switch and looked grumpily at it.
