Before I dive in and order a replacement horn unit, is there anything else that could be causing the issue? Any relays or similar that may have gone bad?
Thanks in advance for any and all advice!

The horns are earth-switched Phil (no relay, just the contact in the steering wheel), check you have a +12V feed to them and then try running a separate earth on a jumper wire that you can connect to the earth terminal on one of the horns and dab on a nearby earth (clean bolt, engine, battery -ve terminal etc) to see if they work. Also try cleaning the +ve terminals and connectors to the horns, if no joy then have a look on fleabay for a new pair of horns.
