Kim Geyer is an unknown quantity at this point
it sounds like the gear warning horn switch on the throttle bodies got moisture in them
I had it happen on several of our 337's. you can put RTV on the connections where the wires solder to the switch or buy cessnas upgraded switch witch has a bolb of epoxy over the connections. check out cessna service letter ME77-24

Horn

I agree with Kim. Had same problem. Check exposed wires on throttle control on top of engine.

I ordered and received the RTV102. Plan to apply today. I have a flight planned on Weds. Expect some rain, so there will be a test. Will let you know if it works. Thanks for the help.

When you do apply the goo, please take a pic or two. I'd like to know the exact geography to do the same in my P337G.

I have had exactly the same problem myself. It doesn't bother me---I am well aware that a loud gear up alarm at 5000' feet AGL is irrelevant---but man, it can scare the passengers. I hadn't known this was a regular 337 issue until reading this thread.
