Default 1973 Horn Issues (HELP)

We are trouble shooting the horn on my 1973 Vette. We have tested the horn and it works, we have replaced the relay and that did not cure the problem. Any other thoughts? The new relay doesn't have the same mount as the old. Any idea on the best way to mount it?

Best regards

did you disassemble the horn button and components under the steering wheel and test them? How can someone tell you how to mount the relay without a picture?
