turn your key to ignition on without the motor on....hold the OPTIONS button and hit the FUEL button I believe like 3-4 times...you should then see the systems check start running on your driver display...good luck

stock_Z06,

I'm not sure what you're looking for here .... everyone has recommended (and I do too) that you display the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) and here's another post to help you understand how to do it ...

https://www.corvetteforum.com/techti...D=26&TopicID=1

If your "CHECK ENGINE" light is on, you have one or more codes ......

If you post the codes here, along with basic information about your car (year, model, auto/manual) then someone can help you out ....

Post the entire code, such as P1234C .... not just 1234 .... the leading letter (P,B,C, etc) tells us what part of the car posted the code (Powertrain, Body, Chassis ... ) but the last letter (H, C, or HC) tells us if it is a History code, a Curent code, or a code that has occured before and is still occuring (HC).
