My mechanic programmed out the CAGS. No more first to fourth forced shift and the message no longer lights up on the dash. He asked if I wanted him to change the dash light feature to a shift light coming on at a certain RPM, but I said no.

When I installed the CAGS eliminator on my '00, I did not disconnect the negative cable on the battery. Just unplugged the connector at the tranny and plugged in the CAGS eliminator unit and sealing cap.

I just bought my 2002 C5 last Saturday, and so far I have found out that I did not get the key to the wheels. Now I read that there is a theft lok for the radio and it requires a password. What happens if the battery is disconnected and I do not have a password? Am I SOL?

Now I'm concerned.

1 you are in the right place, i have gotten more info......valuable info from here than at either of my local gm dealers
2 use the search and see if there are similar posts....yes it can be time consuming and frustrating but give it a good go before you ask and get the bombardment of "USE SEARCH"....trust me i spent hours using search and could not get what i was looking for and still got a little "USE SEARCH" hazing.....after that in the thread acknowledge you have used the search...hazing will be somewhat less
3 start your own thread......only because the title of this one is about skip shift.....people are not going to find your question about radio and wheel locks buried in a skip shift thread......
that being said welcome to the forum
