I did not drive my 50th Anniversary Camaro this winter. The battery did die but it quickly recharged. I kept it running to build up the charge and start it up and let it run every day. I notice now when I go to lock the car the horn does not sound. Is it because of the battery situation or is it something that I need to reset?

Mine doesn't make a sound when I click the lock button once. It only beeps when I click the lock button 2-3 times consecutively

You need to reset the lock options....

be careful, batts that are flattened lose some operating life, the longer it sat flat, the more life you have lost.

I agree with Glen. You mention the locks. You should familiarize yourself with the 1-click 2-click logic, but I have often noticed strange lock behavior as the first sign of a dying battery. I think sometimes energizing the lock solenoids causes enough voltage drop to screw up the digital signals which control the door modules. Once the car is running the alternator will mask any deficiencies on a borderline battery.
