Fixed the horn. Cleaned the points and the rust.
Took a while to get the points adjusted so it honked, then the big adjuster in the centre that controls volume.
Needs a spray to finish it.


Thanks for sharing the pics. Is it ok if I use them next time someone asks about the internals?

Yes, that's OK.
I took more photos intending a 'how to', but several other photos were blurred - I think I pressed the button before the camera had focussed. There are 2 very thin gaskets also in there, and I had to make one from ordinary printer paper but soaked in fishoil.
There is a fairly heavy copper winding for the electromagnet and so long as that is still intact there's not much to go wrong.
This video was very helpful too:
