Just picked this puppy up.
1998 LPE .42k on clock.
Been stored as a semi collection .Runs like a beast All N/A built motor ,Trans and suspension by Lingenfelter built .
Only issue so far is the A/C .And waiting for my meats /or tires.
Nice ride !!... let us know what AC issues you are having and hopefully we can help !!
The old blows good out passenger side and barley anything out drivers side .Then on way home from work the light on ac button started blinking and then went off . Going to do the reset first and check freon .
And I found out the key fobs are dead .Even after replacing batteries. Just got to get these cobwebs out from sitting for 3 to 4 years . Good thing it was in a small collection in a controlled air garage
Waiting on discount tire to get my tires in .This thing is tubbedd and has 345/30/19 on back of it 😁

Sounds like a low Freon charge...AC light will not stay on because the pressure sensor is keeping the compressor clutch from engaging !!
So after driving a few days to work and back, I have my list of to do's.
AC compressor is crap
Drivers side actuator for AC is crap B 0361/B 0441
TCS code C1241 Body Control /Anti lock Brakes
PCM P 1626 Theft deterrent something something
Tried the reset fuse pulling procedure 3 times and it still blows heat out one side.
And new door panels because previous owner glued some carbon fiber panel **** to door.And they look cheap as hell .
Also I believe they OEM TPS read I have too high of air pressure in tires but I do not have OEM tires on it..I think it trips at 45lbs but my tires require 50.
Is there a way to turn off the TPS completly.

Beautiful car. Love LPE stuff. That said, what kind of tires do you run that require 50 (FIFTY!!!) PSI??!!!!
That's the MAX inflation pressure rating of the tire. In other words, the most air you can put in it cold that will not damage the tire, not the actual amount of air you put in it for driving around.
Please don't drive around at 50 PSI.
Unless the door sticker actually calls for 50 PSI then okay. Lingenfelter should have updated it when they upgraded the car with the larger tires.

Also got ac compressor working blows cold after I added some freon ,but still having issues with actuators. Done reset 4 or 5 times works good for a day or so then screws up again. 🤔And have the old mega steering thing .I'll have to pull off and do re soldering. Anyone know where to get switch that's inside it .I think I might as well do it since I will have it off .
