Start by taking it off the car and putting 12v across it- that will show whether or not it's working. If it works, clean up the connections, put it back on the car and try again.
On the cars I've had the horn has been activated by earthing it at the steering wheel. One of my cars needed the connection there cleaning up, even though it's inside the car, so not prone to weather contamination. On that car I had to pry off the centre pad of the steering wheel when the connections became obvious.

The first thing to do is locate the horn. It's almost certainly under the bonnet and between the radiator grill and the radiator itself. You may be able to get at it from underneath the car. Once you've found it you'll probably find it has 2 wires connected to it; making a note of which lead goes to which terminal, disconnect them, clean up the terminals with emery paper, replace the wires and try the horn.

You will find the Horn under the Drivers side, it's access for ease is under the body ( Just done our 206 It's similar) the horn on these cars are rubbish / cheap, I have tried the obvious, contacts, the horn is open to the Weather, if you look on ebay, they are a Fiver, that tells you everything, the Horn Connector is a 2 pin Clamp, press each side of the clamp to release, I exchanged for the one's I had spare for my Beema but had to replace the connector ( Not a bad job to do) easy way to do the job, "Safety in Mind" Jack up the car, remove the Offside wheel / Inner Splash Lining About 6 Plastic Plugs + one Torx Srew on the lower Left hand side as you look at the wheel, as soon as you lower the inner lining you will see the horn, if you open the bonnet & look to the lower left of the Radiator, you will see it.
