Unusual.
Presume you've tried connecting the horn directly to 12v to check it really is fooked and not something else?
Assuming steering stalk switch is ok (contacts can wear) and wiring/fuse is sound, can only be a dodgy unit
Oh - and...
:welcome2:

Have a similar problem on the Discovery, the horns are sited just behind the front grill and if you wash your Landy and spray a hose or pressure washer into the grill, the majority of the water ends up in the horn.
2 easy fixes depends on your preferences
1. Which I used - dont wash the Landy, looks better after a few weeks
2. Re-site the horns further back in the engine compartment

And :welcome2:from me as well.
To repair worn contacts in the stalk, remove the end and fit a copper washer to the contact bit. It must be the same OD as the spring. I used a banjo bolt washer when mine packed in!
Secondly, go to the scrappy and get a couple from anything as long as they work!!
