mt new 98 c5
Hi all, I am 29y/o and just bought my first vette,its a 98 c5 coupe silver withblack interior. Its a 6 speed manual. engine wise the car is great, I have a few issues with, 1. no key fob and only one key, 2. The digital display for the ac does not work, not sure if its a light or I need to replace the whole thing, Im thinking i need to replace it. 3. The front blinkers do not work and blink really fast. I have replaced them both with the same results, still not working. I am the 4th owner and it has a clean carfax report. As of right now I do not know much about corvettes. This forum is perfect for newbies like me to learn as much as possible without being ripped off from the dealership. Also the car is completely stock except for intake. Any advice is much appreciated
