Cliff...owners manuals are free online from Volvo. Probably the best place to start.

Give it a few cycles and tries - fuses do age and just go, without other faults

I think your 2007 is the same as my 2005
Horn power comes from the CEM, terminal B15
The relay is bonded into the CEM, I believe

The CEM triggers it when it receives the signal from the SWM that the horn button is depressed.

Go to the web and look for the 2007 wire diagram

The big “fuse box” on the driver side is the CEM. You can’t just replace that it has to be matched to the car by a firm like Xmodex
