Re: Getting Started E38?

Perfect. I found a E38 on EBay with pigtails for $35 shipped so I grabbed it! I noticed, playing with the cluster, that requesting the HV wake signal gets a response from the cluster. I haven't played much with single wire can and its hard to find too much information out about it on youtube and stu...

Getting Started E38?

I am coming from the older LS1 PCMs, and I want to get one of the newer ones up and running on my bench. Im not completely sure where to get started, so I figured I would ask the experts. Goal: I want to learn about GMLAN and play with an instrument cluster. I have a few different GM truck clusters ...

Re: IPC Hammer

is there a source for new chips? 03-04. I was desoldering the uart jumper wires and I think one touched the top far left pins on the PRNDL display...and the chip no longer communicates. I just recovered it too from a brick. Any ideas or did I create some spare parts? I have some if you still need o...

My question is can this app be adapted to work on a 1999 to 2005 Pontiac Grand AM IPC as I want to swap in another cluster as the LED display on mine is too dim to see in daylight!

Mike
It would be easier to fix the backlight on your cluster lol.

Re: GM-LAN bible but for J1850 VPW

Unfortunately does not exist as GM never made it consistent between vehicles. Makes sense I didn't know for sure but thought this might be the case. I was hoping it might be the same across the board for a lot of the basic stuff just because a GMT-800 pcm can control a trailblazer cluster. So I wou...

Is there a document like the https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qEwOXSr3bWoc2VUhpuIam236OOZxPc2hxpLUsV0xkn0/edit?usp=sharing GM LAN Bible for Class 2 stuff? To give context. I really just want to be able to tell a GMT-800 cluster Transmission temp numbers to test the feature when modding them. ...

Re: Right to Repair.

hence the comment earlier that something as simple as a dash cluster failure should not cripple a vehicle... been going on here since turn of the century and there's only a few people/companies that can overcome it and they charge like wounded bulls. Eg: you have to have a compatible scantool or su...

Re: Right to Repair.

Perfect example is immobiliser not programming/delinking correctly during reprogramming sessions on secondhand modules. It USE TO work correctly, but uses incorrect immo codes on most modules as of today. :shock: So I don't know this to be true or not but I've heard on newer cars swapping other mod...

Re: Right to Repair.

Actually put it into practice instead of doing short youtube videos complaining how hard it is. I literally do repair for a living. I specialize in automotive circuit boards and railway signal boards. I also do freelance technician work for an engineering firm that that does D.O.D. repair work spec...
