Don't know about new horns, but the way to fix the old ones is to hit them
with a wooden hammer (or any hammer with a wood block interposed). Not on
the bell (it will break), but right in the center boss. They get stuck from
disuse and need a hard knock to free up.
BTW you need to remove them from the car and lay them on a hard surface for
this to work.
