Hello guys,
I have a Nissan Qashqai 1.2 DigT Tekna from 2014.
Periodically my horn stops working, I mean it works and then after 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours it does not work and then again after an undifined period of time does work again..some time 1 2 days not working and then again working and so one.
Do you have any idea what can it be? Does someone had the same problems?
Any help or information would be highly appreciated.
Thank you !

Wiring - or a faulty horn - I replaced mine but it was working when I did it - it was just to get it a bit louder

I used a pair of Fiamm horns I'd had "in stock" for about 20 years but never got around to fitting previously.
The pictures have disappeared there (blame photobucket) but there's lots of suggestions on that topic.
These are the ones I used - albeit that's not my car

They were a tight fit but I just got them in though I took the grilles off. However it's not improved the sound much so I suspect I'll be modifying again.
The horns - Fiamm Super CTE 50C:
Before - the single air horn:
