I'm not the most mechanically minded but the horn has stopped working on my 1986 2.5 oval dash lux. Where is the horn? I can hear the relay clicking so hoping it's going to be a simple fix of replacing the horn.

Problem is I can't find it. Is it in the wheel arches? If so which and what do I need to remove? Anyone had same problem?

Front of the car behind the bumper/valance on the passenger side, there should be two horns on a metal bracket (high & low note).
You shouldn't need to remove anything to see them,providing the bracket hasn't rusted through and they've fallen off they will be fairly obvious.

Crawled under, found it, touched it and gently turned it. I now have a horn in the kitchen and waiting to order one off eBay to replace. There is only a disc type horn though not 2. Thanks for the help.
