The new part you are replacing is not the tumble and/or keys, just the goofy looking plastic part that fits behind the dash which the tumbler fits into. You use a small screwdriver to push in a release tab on the side of ignition part to remove your tumbler and key.... before unbolting the ign...
Here you go buddy! I'd never removed anything from my cockpit before so I really took my time with the console r/r so I wouldn't break any of the plastic tabs on my 16 yr coupe. The key/tumbler resides in the black front end of the ignition device and is the only part you can see from the...
Here ya are! I see these bumpers all the time in my pile of C5 aftermarket parts catalogs.
Go to Corvette Central • Corvette Parts and search for part number 465109.
Front hood adjuster bumper with stud is $9.75. Pricey, yes, but we have to pay the "Corvette" tax, right? ;LOL
You need...
My 16yr old C5 has what I call a "lazy left front" pressure sensor. It's always been that way in the 10yrs I've owned this car. That sensor's battery is weak and occasionally stops transmitting to the the TPMS receiver in the car, so the DIC show the same message as what you're seeing. At the...
Beginning in early 2012, I started getting the following DTC's on a consistent basis, which left my car without the HVAC and F45 electronic suspension working...as well as ABS and Traction Control warning lites on the dash display. At first the problems would come and go, then the functions...
No...do not use Carb Cleaner on a throttle body. As what's already been stated above....use CRC's specifc Throttle Body Cleaner...which will not remove or disturb the teflon coating inside the barrel of the TB. Just be gentle with any cleaners. I use a soft clean cloth soaked with the cleaner...
On my last alignment 7yrs ago when I bought a set up new Kumho ASX tires, I had the front tire camber set to zero (0) and haven't had any inside cupping issues since. I'm just a cruiser and do alot of long road trips and no autoX or any other type of racing. I just replaced those tires after...
There are alot of different spoilers and you're not posting any pics of what you have, so just google the manufacturer for online instructions or ask the guy you bought it from. Google is your friend! :thumb
Not sure why no one has commented on this. Anyway, I have a '98 w/ auto tranny and have installed the HyperTech tuner programmer. What I like most about it is that I've reset my cooling fans to come on earlier at 209deg, if needed. Also reset the tranny shift firmness a bit. There are...
With your engine or ign. in the "on" position......do your fog lamps light up when you pull back on your turn signal post? This is the "Flash to Pass" feature on the C5, supposedly warns the driver ahead that you're passing. Hell, I use to "wave" at other vette owners!! They will not flash...
My tender is from Harbor Freight, which will scare some of you die hards, but it's never failed me and keeps my battery charged like a champ! Alot of the local vette club guys around here use the same one with no problems. About $5-$10 normally.
Good luck
You mean "Manuals"...plural!
I got my 3 vol GM set on ebay for $80, back in 2004. They are model year specific too. I read them all the time. Always helps to know your car before something happens.
Good luck:thumb
I agree. I was just reading a similar thread on the CM site this week and I think Paul said GM installed a slightly smaller, in size, high rated "75 D" battery for one or two years after the '97 & '98 model years....then decided to go back to the "78 D" series again until the 2004 MY. I'm not...
Sometimes all we need to do with our C5's is to clean the electrical connections first before throwing money at new parts. My GM service manual normally suggests to always first clean connections, then proceed with the troubleshooting chart. Also cleaning grounding points is a must for all C5's...
Yeah, you have a Fuel Trim lean bank 2 condition....could be an O2 sensor.
Get out your GM Service manual and start studying the situation, or take it to a vette mechanic for diagnosis. I doubt we can help you much more here, but someone may chime in that's an expert!
I'm also a member of...
Don't think I read what code you're getting, but the problem may something besides a dirty MAF sensor. I once had a MAF related code, and found a vacuum leak causing the dtc. Fixed that and no more codes or performance issues. Make sure the air intake system from the filter housing up to the...
It doesn't make any diffence. I think the plug connector is sort of on the drivers side of the MAF when in the proper position. It is on my '98...I just looked in my garage. More importantly, be absolutely sure you have the MAF faced the correct direction. Look closely, there should be an...
Once you pull a wheel off the car, carefully look at the caliper and see how the pads fit into it etc. You'll see all those shiny gadgets you're talking about, so pay attention to where they go and how they fit etc. It's not rocket science, but take your sweet time doing the first corner then...
