I decided to clear every single code that my '97 Corvette had previously thrown up before I went on my typical road trip. I now have a handful of codes that came up after a regular drive from home to the local mall. It's an 11 mile trip, and within those 11 miles I got the following codes...
P1571 H
B0432 H C
B0361 H
B0441 H
C2105 H C
C2110 H C
... and A6-SCM states it has no comm. which I'm suspicious of as well.
P1571 I've read is a very common issue on '97s and early '98s because the fault tolerance was initially set too tight, and as a result the system would throw an error if your tires broke traction (I did floor it once going to my destination and I'm positive the rear tires broke traction). B0432 deals with the rear defogger relay circuit. That's all I've seemed to find about it. B0361 and B0441 both deal with the left temperature actuator which I have absolutely no idea about (I suddenly don't have cold air any longer on my driver's side today). C2105 and C2110 deal with the TMPS which I also have no clue on how to resolve these codes.
I appreciate your time and I hope somebody can help me with all of these codes. I would really like to fully resolve these issues once and for all. Again, thank you for any and all help.

I'm back again with the same issues and haven't got around to fixing the problem. I've tried doing a lot of research about these issues, but I don't know where to start and what to do. I found ground points eight and nine. I guess that's a good place to start? I don't know. The first problem I want to get fixed is my HVAC control panel. It goes in and out randomly now. When it does come on, the driver side blows regular air (not hot, not cold). So, I read that cleaning ground connections eight and nine would fix this issue.

I went to clean the four grounds in the engine bay area, and stud no. 9 snapped off. It was the rustiest one, but it wasn't in terrible shape. It snapped off as I gave it the finishing twist. I have no idea what to do at this point. Any help would be appreciated. I'm not even sure if it's safe to drive at this point. Again, this regards the ground stud located underneath the battery (no. 9). God bless.

How do I go about printing this grounding graphic? looks like something I will like to keep. I can use Microsoft Edge

Drill the frame and install a self tapping screw. In addition to that, if you want, you can grind whatever remains from the original stud and paint it.
I also ran a ground strap from the stud to the hood hinge bolt. No further problems with grounds at all, after having issue after issue with grounding.

Thank you for your help GCG. I did this and it seems to have worked like a charm. I actually did this months back and never got around to posting back, but I got it uploaded and showing now.
Back to the original problem, I was cleaning ground connections because my HVAC control panel is going out completely. It does not display anything, nor do the vents blow any air. Once in a great while now, the HVAC control panel turns on and the whole system works fine with cold air. I checked ground connection G202 and it looks flawless (in the video below). What else could be the problem? Thank you for your time everyone. I really need help ASAP because this is my only driver and the summer is hot! I've tried doing research on my own to no avail.
I tried doing more research and the only other thing that I could find was that the ignition switch could be at fault, which can cause all of the problems I'm experiencing. I tried finding out how to get to it and how to repair it, but I can't find much information in that regard.

Thank you to those who helped. I tackled the ignition switch job before bothering Bill, and sure enough it worked! My contacts looked almost the exact same as the ones in this thread. I accidentally took out the other half of the ignition switch before reading any part of the actual guide. I got it put together fairly quickly though, and everything works like a charm now. The AC boots up instantly now when I first start the car. It never goes out. Both sides blow cold air now too.
PS: Yes, I took out the AC control panel. I finished with the ignition switch, and thought that I should look at the AC unit too, so I ended up taking it apart before testing if the ignition switch job worked. Hopefully this photo helps someone out there for whatever that reason may be.

Thanks for following up and letting us know the solution to your A/C problem. Glad you were able to solve the problem, as the heat and humidity make it mighty uncomfortable without A/C this time of the year!
