Sometimes it takes more then one try to get the horn to beep.

You can replace one, but I see your car is a 1999, you probably should have replaced them all when you got new tires. I have a 1998 and just got new wheels and tires, I replaced them all knowing that they would not last.
You have GEN I (1997-2000) sensors. Fred Beans or Ken Frictner, both Forum vendors have them for $80 a piece.

Age of the sensors is an important factor. However, be sure to patiently go through the retraining sequence as mentioned above.

Glad you got it to work. Nice to have the extra money for other mods.
