[QUOTE=2006c6keller;1568650879]Tiago

You have filled out your profile but could you also help us a little more and include these details: Which transmission - Manual 6 (M6) or Automatic 6 (A6); Suspension system - Base, F55 (Magnetic Selective Ride), Z51; xLT (PEGs - Preferred Equipment Groups) Eg. 1LT, 2LT, 3LT; Navigation (NAV) or Audio system (6 disc changer, etc.).

If you are not sure of all your options, look on the left side of the glove department box for a sticker with all the options that are on your car.

This would especially help us determine what options you have on your car, especially the electricial ones which could cause your problems.

Hopefully, we all can help you resolve your electrical system problem, HANG IN THERE!

The last time I saw ghosts in gauges like that, it was a poor connector on the instrument/gauge cluster. This was not on a GM car, but I'd like to think it is similar. Maybe the humidity on the boat affected the connections there.

A poor connection somewhere is a very good possibility, maybe have to pull connectors apart and clean with electrical contact cleaner. Just pulling connectors apart two or three times sometime solves a poor connection. I have noted in foreign cars that the electrical connectors are filled with a dialectic grease to prevent them from corroding in overseas shipments. These can sometimes be a horrible but simple problem to fix if you can find it. If you had an electricial schematic of the car you could go to the wiring connections in the instrument clusters and where they tie in with other circuits and the fuse panel and definitely check those plugs and wire connections. Good luck.

Need a Tech II diagnostic and a good technician at this point IMO.

Did you call the dealership where you purchased your Corvette, which I assume are the ones that prepared your vette for shipment to Brazil to determine what they may have disconnected before it was crated and shipped? I agree - you don't need a "Corvette Dealer" to have a GM tech troubleshoot this problem.

You checked all your connections - battery, ground wires, fuses and BCM. Disconnected the negative terminal to reset the computer and CEL, and recharged your battery - ensure the battery is fully charged. Read your DIC codes with a CANBUS capable OBDII code reader. Good luck.

If it helps...
The National Insurance Crime Bureau (http://www.nicb.org) gives your VIN a clean bill of health. No "salvage" record.
