Horn stopped working.

One month out of warranty, the horn on my Cayenne S stopped working. I can hear a clicking noise when push for the horn on the steering wheel, but no horn. I checked the fuse and it's okay. I see that there are 2 horns in front of the front wheel well, anyone know whether there's a relay for the horn? If so, where is it located? If I need to replace the horn, anyone has upgraded to a louder horn? Thanks for any info.

the exact same thing happened to me twice, they replaced both horns. They said it's due to extreme cold weather, but I wonder what they're going to say to you since you're in texas

Kinda weird both horns failed at the same time. I'll probably just order 2 new oem horns. Just want to see if there's a relay for the horn that might have gone bad.
