Default c6 horn blowing

I just came out of the grocery store to find my 2006 coupe horn blowing....it blew its fuse before I could unplug it and it was hot as all hell...any ideas on if this is a simple horn replacement issue or is this something bigger? pulled the horn out, its a two wire unit...any ideas on how to test it?

your horn relay is #34 listed here (page 5-98 thru 5-100)..

you said the fuse was burnt out/hot.. the relay #34 or fuse?
you said you removed the horn? you should be able to touch each of the 2 wires to a 12 volt battery and it will HONK.

the fuse was blown..sorry the horn itself was hot as hell, naturally from being going for as long as it took to blow the fuse..could the relay be the problem? thanks for response..

I did some more digging on the forum and found it might be a moisture issue....some other members had the same problem after washing underhood....which I just did an hour before the event.... hope this is the fix! Thanks for your input
