Alright so after I got home on the 8th, check engine light on, no service AH or TC... drove around rest of day, CE went away. Drove the car all day yesterday, will drive the car all day today... Is it possible it's just that F'ing cold out thats messing with battery which is messing with other stuff? But I did notice once I start messing with TC button which is my next look thats when codes start flying. I wanna see how long of regular driving I can get before i get excited.

Derek if your problem comes back make sure you have good connection with your battery cables I had similar problems and turn out my neg cable was not connecting good after replacing my neg post no more issues.

I also am experiencing a burnt electric smell inside the car, when I try to put heat or ac on nothing works( has to be an open circuit possibly now on hvac ?) when I replaced battery all these codes disappeared and car was running issue free forever. I don’t think it’s the module but I did get a code for blower motor 2 open circuit whatever that means but it doesn’t come up anymore because I unplugged it hoping it would temporarily fix the issue until I ordered one.

Someone really messed w. your car! Never heard of the blower motor starting to burn up that I can recall on here. I've heard of the "drape" that acts as part of the sensor that activates the distribution of heat/ac going bad, but not the fan motor itself. Good luck. You seem to be pretty handy at fixing it.

Due to my issues with this car I probably will never own a vette again.

Blower motor is ordered when I went to unplug battery I noticed the cabin filter door was wide open I’m assuming condensation from that got in there which caused it to blow because it literally happened not long after washing car.

Wow, sorry you are having issues, don't blame Corvettes in general, there must be some dark history on your car before you had it. I had a similar problem on a C6 Z06 after the engine was replaced under warranty. Same sort of speed sensor related issues, ABS, Traction, reduced power etc.. It turned out that they had pinched a harness behind a bracket when they had everything apart. You might look around for any harness that could be pinched or chaffed as a result of previous repairs. Good luck, this is not typical!

Posted pics from my phone of starter, I checked to see if it was getting juice, checks out, battery load is good, replaced blower motor, works fine. Car will not even think about cranking; replaced the 20 amp fuse for GM Crank/LAN still nothing. any ideas? I'm leaning towards the BCM took a SH*T.

I have way more codes popping up and my scanner will not connect to car no longer.
