Horn sounds weird

Hey all

Not sure if I'm alone on this, but the only time I've had this issue on an older car was when the horn was about to die.

The car's horn works fine in short burst. But if I hold it down (esp in emergency situations), the horn sounds fine for the first 1-2 seconds. After that, the horn loses it's pitch and sounds really weird. Think of a singer not being able to hold the same pitch or a young boy going through puberty.

Does the X3 have 2 horns? If so, sounds like 1 is shutting off if I continue to hold the horn down.

I don't have any planned trips to the dealership anytime soon, this is probably the best place to ask!

Thanks!
