Are horns still adjustable ? They used to have an adjuster screw in the middle with a lock nut.
Can't say I've looked at one lately but they may not have anymore. 2005 Td5 90 XS Steve |

If you are getting battery voltage at the horn, then the horn must be faulty. May have water ingress.

I know many people claim to be able to fix anything on a Land Rover with a hammer
 but try tapping it with a hammer, the diaphragm inside could be bunged up with crud and dust, worth a try before spending £'s |

The horn is behind the head light, so would check the connections first.

If it as taken in water, you will still hear it, but it will be a dull/muted sound.

is it worth just leaving to see if it will dry out or is that not an option? The Rules:-
