Please tell me how many horns a 2002 P38 should have and where are they located. I had a look the grill with a small torch but can only see the fans for the radiator. Also, when I do find them please tell me what the measured resistance should be beween the two terminals. Thanks.

On my 97 diesel they are either side of the rad next to the headlights, accessed with bonnet open divers side is in the battery tray.
The drivers side horn is in the battery tray?

Sorry drivers side is just out side the battery tray, I Wass rushing as it was hissing down, her is the pass side
The horns work but if I sound them for any more than a second or so the fuse blows. Somebody on here said that they must be pulling too much current, which makes sense, thats why I wondered what the resistance across their terminals should be. I've not checked the resistance of the ones currently fitted yet but I picked up a couple from Ebay, one measures about 1.6 Ohms which sounds about right?, the other is measuring around 0.8 from memory but I suspect this may be faulty as it would be pulling around 15A on its own.
