That message is the only greeting on a C5 - nothing to set or change. If you want to see it - turn the ignition on without starting the car and wait for that to scroll.

It doesn't scroll on my c-5. Could it have been turned off. I just got this car in Sept. Help!

Thanks,

Dave

Don't know of any way to turn the scrolling off. Perhaps your DIC has a problem - does all the other functions on the DIC work?

Someone has modified the program, is my guess. I'll scan the FSMs to see if there is something.

Everything else on the DIC works fine. The only problem I have is the front left sensor is bad. So that's the message I get on start up.

That would suck if his DIC has a problem.
On the C5 you can't change it or turn it off.
Only on the C6 can it be done.

Maybe that is over ridding the Corvette By Chevrolet?

Press Reset to clear the sensor message, matter of fact access the DTCs are there any listed. If so note them and clear ALL modes. Then try again insert key and to the ON position it goes by quickly so you might just catch Chevrolet.

Why are you confused about what Make/Model your driving? There are about 100 logos all over the car to remind you if you forget.

I don't think the OP is confused about the make and model he's driving, he is simply asking a question about a normal function of his vehicle that does not appear to be working. Why is that confusing to you?

Not long after I got my C5, I was cleaning the inside and somehow bumped a button and the DIC was "silent" after that. I don't remember if it was the reset button or not, but just mess around with it a little bit, and I bet the Chrevrolet script will come back up.

I'm not confused, I know it's a Corvette by Chevrolet everytime I get in mine, I don't need a reminder. As a matter of fact, I wish they would have put less badging on it.

It wasn't the best one (I couldn't find it). On the one above, the reflections on the dash frame plastic doesn't line up with the letters - a real giveaway. On the pic I couldn't find, I had the reflection just right.
