Hi! I also have the '82CE. The 82 came with 2 horns. They are located in the front near driving lights. My horns are dead and I've been fighting with them for few days now.

I don't know about tones, sorry.

My '80 also has two horns, and they're also located at the front near the headlight assemblies. Sorry, not sure what tone they are.

hi progress
thanks for the info.
there is a good article on the corvette magazine.com
web site,about how to rebuild them.
i took the horn off the car,and took it apart.the metal
diaphragm inside gets rusty,and will not work.
zip products.com sells a rebuild kit for them.
thank you
ron

i just fixed mine . check the horn ring in the steering wheel ,they get rusty and sometimes break. check the green wire under hood see if you are getting power when you push the horn switch[steering wheel center ]if you are, clean the connections to the horns .thats what fixed mine .
