Mate, I changed mine 3 months ago and no probs. If you haven't already done it .... I would pull it apart again .. check for any exposed wires that may be shorting etc. Before you reasemble, check if horn and hi/lo beam switch works before putting it all back together. It worked before you pulled it apart and you've checked fuses so it must something right in front of you>?? Take your time mate. Cheers OF.
Have you checked the wires for the headlight and horn to confirm if there is power in them. If there is power there then there could be a problem with the switch's. Are you using your original switches? Did you change switches or just the switch covers/switch blocks? I take it that the indicators work?
Mate I've been down this road before myself and had to call an Auto electrician and then felt like a dickhead as I had been looking straight at the problem all the time.
If your not sure it's probably best to have an Auto Spark look at it ..... be nothin' worse than than to have it playing up later in the middle of nowhere!!
Good luck and let us know when you find it? O.F.
