Hi, I'm relatively new to land rover ownership. I bought my freelander 1 almost a year ago. Up til now everything has gone well. However just recently I noticed that the horn had stopped working. It still sounds for the alarm, and if a door isn't shut properly and you try to lock the car using the remote fob. All the fuses seem fine. However as I was investigating this issue I also discovered that the nearside rear passenger window has also stopped working either from the door mounted switch or the centre console. The tailgate window randomly opens, and the cigarette lighter/12v power source on the dash has also stopped working. My question would be - is there a common relay or are they all separate issue. Any insight to this issue would be gratefully accepted.
 
The problems are probably not connected. I had a similar set of problems on mine (the rear passenger window still doesn't work).

The horn was the rotary coupler behind the steering wheel. I got a used one from ebay for about £25 and followed the guide for an MG on this page:

A fairly straightforward job, but take care to leave the airbag to discharge for 30 mins before removing it.
