horn, amb, weird turny switch??

right, my horn has been playing up since i got the car, it was quiet then loud then it failed then it was back on but quiet agen now itts faild agen so i baut a new un from halfrauds and it wouldnt work, iv got 12 v a at the cable and chassis when the hown is pushed and the horntakes current so i waggled it thinking there was a bad earth and it worked perfectly for 2 or 3 pushes so i shut the bonnet packed up and buggered off then i tested it at the end of the road and it just made a little squeek and then faild agen.........wtf??? still got 12v at the chassis and wire and the horn still passes current so what could it be??

 

at the same time i found a weird switch thing wich looked aftermarket well it looks more like a turny volume controle on an old amp with the big button removed.....anyway i turned it by 4 mm and drove it.....it drove like a bag of shite felt weird so i turned it back just wondering what its likely to be?

 

its the thing next to the 'bit of blue'
