kindtree -> '03 Disco. No horn. SRS light on. Also, no Bentley manual?! (2/28/2008 3:20:50 PM)

OK I did a search and although I did figure out a lot about what the problem may be, I was looking for a little more insight than I could find. I was a member on bimmerforums when I had my BMW for years, so I know how the whole "search first" thing works.... I searched.
Anyway, I recently bought an '03 Disco SE. The battery was dead, and I had it replaced. I thought that may be the reason for the SRS light, but the horn also doesn't work. Now, I wouldn't think that it would just need a clearing of the SRS/ECU at a dealer if the horn's not working.... That points me to the horn coil, coupler, or some sort of electrical open in that circuit. The fuse is fine.
Now, I can't find for the life of me a Bentley, Chilton's, or Haynes manual for this thing. And I'm not exactly sure I want to just go tearing things apart without knowing what I'm looking for and exactly what I'm doing. I've rewired and rebuilt my '68 GTO myself, and I did everything myself on my '98 328i, so I'd say I'm a pretty capable DIY guy.
Does anyone know where to get a service manual? Or do I just look for one for the '02 (which I can find)? And I'm sure someone has gone through this before, seeing as how it's an extremely common problem, so I was wondering if there was any insight out there that could be pointed in my direction....
Also, is there a better place to go in the future for DIY advice? I really hate going to the dealer, especially in San Diego, if I don't absolutely have to.
Thanks for any and all support.
