what number would hartford CT be under. It looks like either 11 or 12 and i don't have the manuel

91chevZ71 · 11-27-2007, 01:39 PM

I'd go with eleven

2wdchevywt · 11-27-2007, 04:29 PM

or i could just put it in cal and drive in circles right?

91chevZ71 · 11-28-2007, 05:35 PM

Try it and see

I've got a question about the OEM harness in a NBS (01 tahoe). Is there a plug under the overhead console? One of the diagrams makes it look as so but I'd need to pull the headliner out and I'm trying to avoid that if at all possible. I've apparently got a short somewhere up around the mirror and I want to get it tracked down before I burn the truck up.

I have a similar questing to the one above.

I just picked up a auto dimming compass mirror from the j/y yesterday and was wondering if there is a switched power supply under the head liner in the '92 silverado or would I have to get creative with the wiring?

BlackBlazer92 · 12-08-2007, 01:09 PM

i just put my new mirror on and the button that holds it to the windsheild popped off. it has happend before and i just glued it on with this kit from autozone. well this time it came off and took chunks of the windshield with it has this ever happend to anyone

txgunrunner · 12-28-2007, 12:33 PM

i just looked at the back of my rearview which only has the passenger side air bag light and a 9 wire connector. i havent verified if i have the temp sensor but if i do does this sound like all i have to buy a mirror and plug and play? i read the whole thread and read about the 7 wire plug but nothing about the 9 wire. thanks for the help

aelancaster · 01-04-2008, 10:01 AM

Just put my temp/comp mirror in last night. Was reading temp fine this morning and the compass works well on calibrated. Temp is reading 90-94 degrees and I can assure you that that is way off, it is more like 40 something outside. What should I check?

BlackBlazer92 · 01-04-2008, 10:21 AM

were did you put the sending unit? it may be reading off if its to close to the motor. i put mine right behind my front bumper light and sometimes if u leave it sit running it will start reading a little bit hot because of the heat from the motor.

aelancaster · 01-04-2008, 02:32 PM

Mine is a 07 classic, the sensor and wiring were already in place.

BlackBlazer92 · 01-04-2008, 03:28 PM

ooo in that case i cant help ya??? maybe its a bad senson

i read the troubleshooting section on mine and i remeber it saying something on how to fix it if its reading really hot i cant find the book though? did u try un pluging it and trying again?

aelancaster · 01-04-2008, 04:40 PM

Thanks for looking. I did try unplugging and plugging both the mirror and the sensor,no luck. Sometimes it reads correct and sometimes reads really high like 99 degrees. Just wish I knew if it is a bum sensor or the mirror I got off ebay is bad. The compass works perfect.

aelancaster · 01-08-2008, 05:17 AM

Any ideas on how to check the sensor or the mirror? I don't want to just throw money at this problem if I do not have to.

JMH1950 · 01-08-2008, 05:38 PM

The zone map that is in my drivers manual is totally different than this one that is posted above.

http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x...ssZone_Map.gif

This one I'm zone 3 and on the one in my owners manual I'm zone 9.

However I'm using a mirror that I bought from a J/Y, any way to know which zone map is right, besides driving onto the airport runway compass rose?
