Hello all, This is probably an odd request but an easy one for fellow owners. I was wondering if someone could be so kind as to take a still shot of your similar year corvette with the headlights turned up (preferably the lights off). I'm working on a Chevy commercial and I'm animating the...

Hello, Does anyone know where the blinker relay is located for this 1987 Corvette of mine? In my experience over the years, there is usually just one isn't there? It has been a while since I messed around with older cars. :) My sympton would lead me to believe there are two though because my...

Freddie, I appreciate this. I had actually thought of the exact same thing and bought a variable resistor at Radio Shack. I simply measured the key, then turn the dial until the var resistor read the same. My one problem....why did I seem to get the ONLY corvette that does not have the...

This is a good run down. Now if I can only get under this thing. I just bought some ramps and jack stands. I have a 2 ton llift jack but each time I put it at the lift point, it just seems plain scary. I did the search for C4 lift methods and there were a lot of competing opinions. Some...

This is what I found on the VATS and havent had any luck identifying the correct wires. There is a reference to either a 2 wire option or 48 wire option. Neither match what I have and Ecklers says they have never seen anything other than 2 wires, covered in an orange jacket, with white...

So you are suggesting building these ramps to slow scoot under as I lift? Or can I simply use the jack, lift and slide the ramps under? I've heard a lot about the security key and have not had much luck there. I am told there is supposed to be a distinct set of wiring coming from the steering...

I was planning/hoping to jack it up and instead of jack stands, use the ramps. Is there one preferred over the other? Something about having the wheels on a ramp makes me feel safer when I crawl beneath. I did block the rear ones though. SO, if it is the ground or hot cable, what is the...

Hello, I have an 87 corvette. Just fixed some AC stuff and took it for a ride last night. While stopped in a parking lot, I noticed dash lights flickering a tad (could be a coincidence). So I pulled into a spot and thought I would turn it off and back on and when I turned it off, even with...

Thanks. Great diagram. Now to see what all i can get to without removing the dash. The center console doesn't look terribly difficult (around the AC controls, radio). Appreciate your help and any other guidance. Eric

Hey Jack, Actually I did check it. Once it worked, I put things back together, test drove 10 miles and the damn thing died. :) Any comments on my other post about the airflow in the vents/hoses themselves? Eric

Jack, It wasn't too bad really....just about 15 bolts or so. Of course I took it off twice since the brand new blower died shortly after installing. I sent it back for a replacement. Eric

Sorry I missed this posting. Not sure how since I had this set up for notifications. Anyway, fan relay, high blower relay, lo medium relay thing all replaced. I replaced the blower motor with a new one and rode 10 miles, went into a store, came back out, started car up, blower dead. I...

Crap. :) Guess that is the answer to my comment about how it seems to not be enough room. So inner fender? Is that an easy task? Appreciate your input. Eric

Removing AC Blower Motor for replacement Hey Jack, I'm pretty sure that the relay module is probably what is causing the blower to not work on low and medium but I am also replacing the fan just because it is old and might have a little more ummph to it. The ecklers parts guy had told me it...

Hey jack, I used some of the recent info and I confirmed a couple things that I knew, one the evaporator is good, the compressor is good and working (and I am aware of the slow leak but a separate problem), blowing cold air. I think what i found that is most significant, well two things, one...
