I Need Help!
I went out to start the C6 this morning and the key fob would not open the door. I unlocked the rear hatch pulled the rip chord and opened the door. Battery is dead dead. I know the last time that I drove the car that I left the car in reverse because I remember the horn sounding when I walked away from the car. Anyway I attached a battery charger to the battery turned it on and the horn proceeded to sound. I guess the computer thinks I am now trying to steal the damn thing. I can disconnect the battery from the car and charge it OK but then when I reconnect the battery I would imagine the horn will again sound. Any ideas?

You should always disconnect at least one of the battery cables from the car whenever you connect a charger anyway. Other posts have said Chevy wants you to disconnect both cables.
