need help electrical problem
was driving 03 coupe today and all of a sudden could not role the passenger window down or unlock that door with the button. Then about a mile later reduced engine power, check or service everything came on and the gauges went bizzerk(sp) :skep: . the car ran fine but when I would shut it off and restart it would only drive normal for about 2 or 3 miles :confused: .
Have a dealer appointment Tuesday but I am curious if anyone else has had this problem?
Also the dealer I deal with is great so far.
Thanks for any help :flag

Re: need help electrical problem (UNFORGIVEN)
I have seen this a bunch of times :yesnod: If you open the door,you will see an acordian shaped grommet.If you pop this grommet out,you will see 2 wiring connectors (blue and black).From opening and closing the doors,these connectors can become stressed,causing the female pins in the connector to spread,causing poor contact with the male pin in the connector...One of the connectors is a ground,and when the circuit becomes open it causes havoc with the other modules in the vehicle :yesnod:

Before you take it to the dealer make sure you pull your codes, it may be something simple. Heres the link for checking your codes https://www.corvetteforum.com/techti...D=26&TopicID=1
