Took the vette to work today. Got a strange call that my 'car alarm' is going off. When I got there no alarm was going off, however, witnesses told me the horn was sounding (with no brakes, just steady honking). I went to the car walked around; no problems. On my way home the horn doesnt work at all!!! and still doesnt!!! Can anyone relate to this? What is actually broken horn itself or switch?? IM so lost---
From: Dear Karma, I have a list of people you missed.

Just a hunch but start by checking the obvious things first. Fuse and/or horn relay. Also pay close attention to the presence of any wetness you may see or feel around the passenger side floorboard area. If it's wet, it may be from HVAC condensation leaking down on to the BCM (Body Control Module), which is located right next to the fuse panel there. Pull the carpet out if you have to and dry it, and the entire area, if necessary. The drain tube is located next to rear of the engine on the firewall, towards the passenger side, and must be cleaned/opened up if clogged. HTH
I had this same problem - it eventually blew the horn and then the fuse. I asked this question a few months ago and some guy told me the horns just 'go' sometimes due to wetness in the horn, etc. I was going to order a new one and put it in sometime this winter but I have not gotten there yet. Let me know if you find a good price!

I was driving with horn blowing and radio blasting....when I parked car I had to pull fuse to stop horn. I must have looked like a moron....The dealer replaced the relay/horn button in the steering wheel for the fix...
