By now everyone knows there are some critical components that are now unavailable for the 97-2000 model cars, specifically the EBCTM(Brake Control Module) and the Steering Wheel Position Sensor. Is there anything GM can do to make a run of these rare parts? Or convince someone in the aftermarket too?
One other option to explore here is to provide a way to update the obsolete components to the newer system?

Thanks in advance...

great question , looking forward to seeing the responses.

Very good question and one that all 97-00 C5 owners should be interested in GM's response.

Agreed. I'd like to purchase both as spares.

I'm in. There are other parts that are unobtainable as well.

It is my understanding that the early model EBCM's are imbedded in some type of epoxy that prevents even a knowledgable tech to fix these units. The late model EBCMs (2001 and up) can be fixed (in most cases) if they fail. Since the early EBCM's are no longer available, the only way a vehicle with a bad EBCM can be fixed is to find a unit off another early C-5 that has been salvaged.

The bottom line is, many early C-5 owners are driving their cars with no traction control ABS, because their EBCM has failed. This could be an area where the feds get involved should someone have an accident that can be traced back to failures of a unit that GM no longer builds or repairs.

We need to continue to ask this question.

Worthy of the next poll!
