Is this for a 1998? If not, what year is your Corvette?

This is the Help section of the site for help regarding the website itself, forum issues and account issues. You will receive much better responses if your post was in one of the Corvette specific sections. Normally, we'd move your post but we'd need to know the year of your Corvette in order to know where to move your post to as we have several sections for Corvettes that vary by generations (years).

I really can't see where you would short it out by changing a battery, Check your connections, I know the C5 does go through senders, But not in 2 weeks...lol
I am glad I mounted mine in a different place, Under the drivers FRC.
Good Luck.

Wouldn't hurt to try to disconnet the battery and reconnect to see if that fixes it.
