You're forgiven! 
It's just that if you post in the wrong section it may restrict the number of responses that you get and also it makes them harder to locate in future should they be needed. |

If the horn isn't working and you've got an SRS warning light on, I'd suspect that the clock spring is defective. This is a module behind the steering wheel that allows electrical current to both the horn and the air bag in the steering wheel.
I'd get the fault analysed. Maybe you can find someone local to you who specialises in SRS faults? You could probably locate a replacement clock spring on Ebay if it does prove to be faulty. Once fitted, I think the fault will need to be cleared electronically. |

That will probably be the wiring for the seat belt connector and pressure sensor. This causes the warning indicator light up if the seat is occupied and the belt not engaged. AFAIK it's not related to the SRS system. |
