Default What is this - Round 2

Again, found this item just in front of the firewall on the driver's side. Have no idea what it is and if it should be mounted to anything or if something else should be connected to it.

That looks like the busted remains of your alarm arming lock that should be in the fender

Hi,

Get yourself a big laminated wiring diagram specific to your year. I have been able to find out just about anything from looking at the wire color, guage and what other wires are next to it in the harness. It is a great reference.

Greg :cheers:

Mid-America and Eckler's sells them. I think they are only $15 or $20.

I do believe that is part of the wiper motor assembly.
It should go on the wiper motor housing somewhere.

For the same price you can get the whole assembly manual (couple of hundred pages) then just copy the 10 electrical pages and tape them together on a board. When it gets greasy, just copy another set. They all fit together.

Hey RCB, are you going to the Chevy Vettefest this weekend? You could probably find a lot of that little stuff there and it would be original parts. I'm planning to get there at opening tiome on Saturday, if you are going we should get together. :party:

Steve,

I'd like to. I was planning to show up with my wife but we're trying to sell the house and missed a showing last Sunday because I was at the hospital with my dad.

Plus, my wife has to write a scholarship paper, so I'm not sure if I can make it up there. I'll hit you on e-mail if I decide to go and we can try to hook up.

I got my laminated wiring diagram at one of the Chevy Vette Fests in Chicago a few years ago. They always have them as well as most of the major Vette catalog vendors.
