SOURCE: location of a 2003 dodge stratus horn, also not loud enough
Horns are usually in front of the radiator and behind the grill--look for two of them, one on each side. Make sure they both sound. If only one works, there is a significant reduction in sound level. There may be road debris stuffed into the horn's throats--poke a hooked stiff wire into the throats and see if anything comes out. Most are sealed and can't be taken apart to clean--replacement is about the only recourse. (look in a wrecking yard for replacements)

Most times the horn has water in it. You can remove the horn and try to get any water or dirt out. Also some have an adjustment knob / screw on the side, which can be turned to increase the loudness. In some cases it just goes flat and needs to be replaced.

If you have an after market alarm installed remove the in line power fuse from the alarm and see if that resolves the issue. I would look at the horn buttons on the steering wheel for the fault first as this is the most common area of a problem. If that checks out then you will need to check the horn itself. After that the only place left is the ECM or a short in a wire.
