97 m6 "pull key wait 10sec" after Lcm5 install
Good evening everyone
i am relatively new to the c5 community as i have recently purchased a 97 Torch Red coupe ( i have in the past ls swapped other cars so im very familiar with gm wiring and ls1s in general), it was basically stock other than a Borla stinger axle back. it has approx 100k on the clock. over the winter i went through it pretty thoroughly, mostly maintenance stuff, shocks, sway bar bushings and links and tires. I also did longtubes (JBA) and Dorman ls2 intake with ls2 throttle body and and Volant CAI. anyway this vehicle never gave me any issues with the column lock, but since i wanted the piece of mind about it not messing up, i recently installed the lcm5, now if the car sits for more than a few hours i get the "pull key and wait 10 sec" message i have not tried to drive it to see if the fuel shuts off, i simply shut off and restart the vehicle and the issue is resolved. Battery is brand new (AC delco) and i have removed and cleaned EVERY ground on the vehicle, as far i can see the "Brown Wire mod" doesn't work on my 97 6 speed as i don't have a column lock relay , maybe i'm mistaken on that part, just curious if anyone else has expierenced this issue on a 97, every other post about lcm5 install issues seems to center on the "brown wire mod". thanks

You are correct that the "brown wire mod" does NOT apply to the 97 or 98 C5's. I do not think there is a solution for the message you are getting after the LMC5 install but I would call "Richard" at Compliance Parts and see what he can offer for help.
