Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

Took out both seats this morning and repaired the rocking seats, another known C5 issue. Next on the agenda is normal maintenance. Replace belts and pulleys, fuel pump, transmission filter/fluid and diff fluid. Once these are complete I should not have to do anything until the next oil change. It's ...

Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

Well my car's interior is in pieces. The switch is out and I see the same burn marks the link I included did.

I'm happy :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I have correlation to the link and my failure.

I'll have it put back together next weekend.

Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

I'm still at it. Now after doing more research online I think I have it nailed down. Looks like the ignition switches (not the lock) go bad. When I checked the fuses for the modules not working I do not see the battery voltage. When working I do. When in ACC and on modes I should see the battery vol...

My other fun for the week

Seems my OS got hosed. So I had to rebuild it. Thankfully I had a windows backup of when I last built it. So it only took a couple of hours, moistly due to windows updates. I installed the important programs, Steam and Origin :) and made a new backup image. First my car then the computer all in one ...

Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

I had more fun last weekend. I took the ABS module out as I was getting Traction control and Stability control errors and sometimes the car did not have these as well as ABS, to fix it. Makes driving more fun :) Anyway, it took out, replaced a relay and put it back together. It took longer than I ex...

Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

My ideal man cave is a garage that has all the tools and space I need. Now add a room for the theater would be a plus.

Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

Brakes and some bushings done last year.


This is all normal maintenance with a few old part replacements. If I let someone else do it, it will be about $200 per item.



My next house will have a 12 car bay with a full lift and a main house having 1 room. :)


This is actually fun.

Re: Tell me again why I own a Vett?

No it was not, but it is done.

The next thing is to fix the seat tracks. After that I'll drop the tranny pan and replace the filter/fluid. While I'm at it I'll replace the diff fluid. After that I should be good until 100K when it is time to change plugs.
