And some time later Everything is PERFECT STILL, Sometime electrical stuff can come & go... but this proves out to be a fix.... Now we just wait for the starter to get baked ( again ) ....Hopefully on over 20K or more miles Mike

Look at my thread.. I just went thru this The short answer was the stud on the back of the starter was loose!

The thing that fooled me.... There was an internal tooth lockwasher at the back of the stud that had chewed into the lug for the batt. And do to the thickness of the Batt cable, here was enough pressure to keep the Batt to starter solid enough so my starts were smooth.. BUT there was obvious...

Fixed....FTW! Corvette charging system fixed after a 3 round fight... the good news it only cost 40 bucks and that was just for a Thank you to David ( My son for crawling under the car ) ! Short answer , starter stud's nut clamping the BATT & ALT cable was LOOSE ! Tighten that up, took the O...

Thanks Hib ! I'm still trying to suss out the starter situation I have a similar price on Amazon & my GF gets FREE 2 day shipping

OEM alt That one was a core in Oct of 16 ( kicking myself ) calling dealer today to get part #'s & prices The PCM & ECM are OE Thanks Mike

And more..... Well the O really's alt lived long enough to do the following tests. Charged the batt back to 12 .2 volts I ran a 8 ga wire from the BAT + to ALT + I put everything back together & started her up. The AC was running. Alt was putting out 14.7 at the stud.The DIC said 14.3 and I...

More Alt charging info We went to O reallys and tested my OLD alt from my trusted rebuilder... The NEW alt worked , but we exchanged it there was something rattling in the pulley AND we tested the New Exchange one , that worked. My OLD alt worked as well... Hmmmmmmm When I started talking...

Hi Mike here, Long time member but a C6 noob poster. Ive been doing a fair amount of searching and coming up with.. odd info, that I'm not sure I can trust. Vert , Auto, base 37K on chassis The issues is No Charge aka Service charging system DIC alert. Bit of history, Theft recovery car...

C-1243 code epilouge Swapped all the ABS out ... Used the Craigs list PUMP Used the repaired ABS Fixer ECBM. Re bled the system 2X ( lotta junk in the fluid ) BAM Nuttin but WIN. Codes GONE.... So MY PROBLEM was the ABS pump motor was drawing to much current on self test... and threw the code...

Almost there..... Well Not much to report EXCEPT I bought s Foxwell NT-630 scan tool which does ALL of the ABS test functions, ABS pump activate, test solenoids, "GM" auto bleed. so I can do everything I need to on the first shot. $180.00 from Flea bay. Yes it is a china POS BUT it seems...

A theory on the BPMV to fix 1243 , and the BEST course of action.... Speculation....Looking at the 1998 FSM Hydraulic internal map of the BPMV, there seems like a fair amount of nooks & crannies controlled by the solenoids that would keep air in the system IF the ABS wasn't engaged.. A...

BPMV research I ASSUME that this is a simple procedure.. BUT I also understand to do a PROPER brake bleed you need a scan tool that will do BI Directional functions, like turn on the ABS pump and close the wheel solenoids in the pump / valve body. Has anyone done this recently.. and have a...

Able to pass self test on C5 2002 work in progress So 1 HUGH step forward….. I got up at midnight and made an extension so I could hook up my loose ABS pump to my repaired ECBM. This morning , I took apart & cleaned the ground by the battery, since I had not done that yet. No change in the...
