The early airhorns I had last century - Masserati from memory - had provision for the compressor to be lubricated occasionally. That small delight seems to have become a lost feature in this throwaway age. From time to time I give the compressor a good squirt of CRC or WD40 into the air intake opening and it really speeds things up.
Despite the compressor being "sealed for life" I dismantled one and then decided to lubricate using the squirt method.
So if you find only one horn operating you might try the lube trick before assuming the silent trumpet has died. It could be just that the compressor isn't spinning fast enough.
