    PKE Module

    Any way to bench test the PKE module for a 1996 coupe? Replaced one that I thought was bad with a used one but it does not work either. Do not want to rip everything out again until I know for sure the module is good. Thanks.

    remote key fob

    Is there any way to check a remote key fob? Just bought a '96 LT4 and the remote does not work. The PKE light does not come on so I assume it is turned off. But I think the remote is still supposed to open/close the passenger door and hatch lid. Don't want to spend $150 unless I'm sure this...

    Power seat conversion

    Manual seat track in my '96 coupe is shot and was thinking of converting to 6-way power seats. Looks pretty straight forward - replace the racks with a power seat assembly and install the power seat switch in the console. Any thoughts?

    1981 Shop Manual and AIM

    Swapped my '81 for a 96 coupe last week. Both have issues but am thinking i got the better end. Anyway, I have a shop manual and AIM that needs a new home. They can be yours for the cost of shipping. Anyone still need to read instructions? I also have a set of parking brakes.

    Just bought a 1996 LT 4 with 26k miles. When I test drove it, the clutch would engage right at the floor with not much travel. Then it went completely out. The dealer fixed it and everything was o.k. for the second test drive (he said they reconnected the clutch cable; there isn't one that i...

    Power door locks

    Power door lock switch on the passenger side of my '81 does not work. The driver's side does (both doors). Replaced the P/S actuator, switch, and pigtails. Still nothing. I'm getting power and the switch ohms out but nothing happens. Since this is a double circuit, it seems to me that either...

    '81 dashboard lights

    The dashboard lights in my '81 are not real bright even when turned up all the way. I've replaced the headlight switch and checked the ground. I'm replacing the dash and thought I would replace all of the light bulbs while it's out. That's about $50 worth of light bulbs and not sure if it...

    Color/Interior Combo

    Thinking about buying an '03 convertible. Does anyone know if they built metallic red with light oak interior? Everything I see looks like all the red ones came with shale (anniversary option).
