Are you talking about the air horns? If so it is possible the solenoid has failed, a common problem.

We had the same problem. There is another thread here from when we had our failure. We replaced the solenoid valve; it was easy. It's a silver colored cylinder under the dash. If I remember correctly, it disconnects from two lines, then simply replace with the new part. easy diy project. We got the part from Air Horns of Texas (If this is Dave, I just sent you an email)

Hmmm, ok stupid suggestion, try starting the coach, letting the air pressure build up and then try it again. Once the AP has bleed off, you wont get any sound, but the clicks will still work in the wheel. I found this out when I tried to check mine parked after two weeks, it did not work, I then remember it's an "air Horn".
