Hey Driver 456,

I did a google search by typing in "star connector I" and "corvette", and one result came up: it was a link to a "manual" for the LPE programmer. In this manual, they point out where this connector is.

Hope this helps.

Sounds like you got it working! Just for reference, the two Star connectors are located just to the left of the BCM in the passengers foot well. They are two flat connectors with little plugs that plugs into the connector that simply connect all the wires together. This is the single point that the serial buss from all devices connect together.
