thanks, I've already seen this video and used it to start diagnose.
I used 2 little wires connected to the horn and plugged in a battery chrger: it does works as it should.
I noticed some greenish "sludge" on the connector, so I cleaned them with contact cleaner and boom! Horn live again. Don't know if a temporary fix or if it effectively solved, but the 4-5 push I made it sounded as it should.


in our car the yellow wire is on the top connector instead of the bottom one, and so I reconnected it as it was (never removed before). Does it matter? Don't seem to have a "polarity"...
