GREMLINS....... They jump between window motors,horn switches, climate controls, seat motors, Bose radio systems, dash lights and any other electronic / electric system they can gain access to. They seem to occupy only one system at a time. Ignoring the symptom seems to **** them off and will go somewhere else trying to get your attention. A sure fire way to get them to hide is to bring the Corvette to a shop for repair or analysis. It's hard to fix something that isn't broken.

Try holding the horn button down and turning the wheel back and forth.
If it the horn works intermittently, suspect the horn ring in the steering column. Its a brass ring on a piece of plastic, and the plastic cracks.

Mine is doing the same, except when I press the horn buttons I hear the relay click. I notice that if I unplug the horns for a day or so it will work for a little bit and then go dead again. Anyone run into this scenerio?

Horn Problem
I just bought a white 91 vert and on my first drive, the same thing happened to me. I know it worked initally because I had to use it when some idiot tried to drift into my lane. However, later that night, it would not work with either button but I too heard the relay click. I tried to find the fuse but it is located in one of the auxilliary panels under the passenger side of the dash. I tried to remove the cover with no luck so I gave up. Then I tried the horn and it sounded sick. Then it worked fine and still does.
