Default IPC "Corvette by Chevrolet"

Hi all,

I noticed the IPC in my 2000 FRC doesn't greet me with the "Corvette by Chevrolet" read out.

It shows my mileage instead... I did go through all my diagnostics and it shows those just fine. Do I need to adjust something? Thought it was a neat feature, not sure why mine doesn't display it.

I suspect you are right about the battery. I hooked it up to my battery tender as I haven't driven the car for about 2+ weeks and it went into charging mode for several hours.

It's back to full charge. Took 8+ hours. Newer battery too.

The only time mine displays mileage when not running is if some light somewhere is left on.

It now reads "Corvette by Chevrolet" ... I guess the battery was low after all, despite being new this spring.

The car is new to me, but I think PO did not drive it too often. Parasitic losses between drives?
