Default ECBM issue

I bought my vette a couple of weeks ago, my first corvette, always been a dream to own one! Anyway thanks to this wonderful forum I was able to get the ECBM issue fixed by ABSfixer.com, they also fixed my climate control low light level issue. For anyone facing these issues this is the place to go, I am sure this has been mentioned previously in other threads. A good group of people who do exactly what they say they will do for reasonable price is worth mentioning again.

I don't believe there is a fix for a 1997-2000 Vette ebcm. I could be wrong. Also I read that you can't buy them any longer.

For owners of 97-00 C5s, too bad absfixer can't repair those parts. But glad you got yours fixed.

Thanksk guys, I did not realize that the previous versions could not be fixed by anyone. Sorry fellas! It was very annoying getting all of those warnings and yellow indicator lights. Maybe someone will eventually come up with a fix for the earlier ones! Good luck, hope it happens for you!

Default new ecbm

There was a new one for sale on Ebay the guy wanted $741.00 for the whole unit apparently he has quite a few new ones. I just opted to remove it myself and the climate control and sent it ABSfixer.com guy (Brandon Hite is his name). Out of car on sunday in box and shipped on Monday got it back the following Monday using second day air on return and out. Put it all back together Wend. and everything works perfect no complaints....
