I found the warning buzzer and disconnected it. I also bought a quick disconnect from Ecklers. That should resolve that problem. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the replies folks. I will check them out.

Randomly, I will go into the garage and hear a strange noise. It is coming from the interior of my 78. It is a warning buzzer of some sort. However, the keys are out of the car! No, it is not on ACC. If I start the car and then shut it off, the sound goes off. It may or may not come back on at...

Congrats on the award. I hang out with a bunch of boulevard cruiser old guys. In their world " a Vette is a Vette is a Vette". No appreciation of the nuances. If it ain't a "muscle car" or a hot rod , it ain't cool.

I had a bunch of weird sticking anf poppinh noises when I got mine. Once I removed the old differential fluid and replaced it with 2 units of posi fluid and the rest with "official" GM fluid, the npise went away. Turned out to be dry posi clutches.

You got to laugh. I went to where I have the Vette "stabled". Jumped in. Started it up. Pushed the power window switch to confirm that I needed to fix it. Wouldn't you know it? The windows worked just fine. I guess letting it sit was all it needed. LOL.....

I hope to get at it this week (I was on vacation last week). I definitely plan on trying the velcro thing while I have it apart. I never thought of gluing the circuit boards. Usually, just pulling things apart and putting them back together worked. I guess that included the circuit boards, too.

It will be a project for next week. I am seriously (don't laugh) thinking about putting velcro in place to hold the side panels of the console. Those 3 screws are starting to strip out and it seems I have this thing apart way too often.

Yesterday the power windows decided to quit working again. They do this about 3 times a summer. Everything is working just fine. Then, out of nowhere, they decide to quit working. I have to take the side off the center console (I need to put velcro on it), take the plugs off the window switch...

I just bought a cheap "suction pump" at Auto Zone. It emptied all the old fluid out just fine. Put in 2 units of posi fluid and filled the rest with "official" GM differential fluid. Went pretty smootly.

I live in MN and I have never had an emissions check on my Vette.

"Emergency brake vs parking brake". I guess that shows my age :-)

Interesting thought. My EB doesn't work. In a fit of "Bubba-ism" a couple years ago, I removed all the parts from the left rear hub and cut the cables to the rear tires. I always planned to replace everything from the handle on back. Just haven't gotten around to it yet. Next weekend is...
