Default Introduction ....

Well I am finally in possession of my dad's 1990 coupe. He has owned this car from day 1 and I was with him when he picked it up. Over the last 18 years it has accumulated 45k and has always been in the garage under a cover. The car is full of memories which is nice, took it to my prom ext. I just started driving it and have a few questions,

The Climate control blinks for a few minutes after starting the car. I know the battery is weak and needs to be replaced and will do so this week. The AC also no longer works, I figure it has a weak O-ring and the system leaked.

Does anyone know a corvette specialist in NH?

The Climate control light is blinking because the a/c has a problem. Have that checked out and then reset the climate system. The owner's manual describes this.
