Yo you saved me from been stranded !! Turns out my fuel pump fuse was fucked so I swapped it for the windshield bs and it worked, I owe you one ☝️
Just glad I can help
Hi Kevin. You are a life saver. I'm in Australia and bought a 2007 Corvette yesterday. I drove it home with no problems. Parked it and the dash went out and it was dead. I was going to take it back as no one I rang here could help me. Then I found your BCM unplug and plug back in. That fixed the problem and she's good as gold again.
So again, thank you very much. I have subscribed and will start watching your other Corvette videos
Cheers from Tony - Melbourne Australia
Hi Toni, for bcm unplug and pluging, only blue brackets or another, and with car battery or without powering?
Amazing vlog and too much things to learn. Thanks for sharing!
Really really good video!! Thanks for all the info.
WOWWWWW your video is the truth!! I just started our C6 by watching your video I took a chance and said let’s ck the fuel pump relay and taaada! It cranked 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 thank you so much!!!
hey Kevin -- just ran into another issue where my 2005 C6 Corvette wouldn't start. When we would hit the starter button, all the gauges would cycle, headlights would come on, and had power to everything. With the green light lit on the starter button, I could put my foot on the brake and shift the gear selector to P, R, N, D. The issue: one of the shifter cable ends had lost part of the bushing / grommet and was not allowing the car to work the selector lever on the transmission. So while it was giving the appearance inside the car that the shifter was working and showing that it was shifting between P, N, R, D...it wasn't doing anything. So the car was not truly in park which did not allow the car to start. Having to replace the shifter cable now. But this created the exact scenario that you were describing. Just thought you might add this to the list (probably way down on the list :) ) of things that could possibly be the culprit. Hopefully it might help someone else out who encounters these symptoms.
Thanks for sharing.
Sounds very similar to what happened yesterday with my 2010 C6GS, but moves forward when placed in R. Thankfully, it happened after my wife and I came back from the grocery store, and a neighbor buddy helped push it in the garage.
I stopped at the end of the driveway, got out to check the mailbox, got back in, took it out of P to place into D, and observed it slipped into the S slot. I didn't think anything of it until turning into the garage and placed it in R to get a more straight entry. That's when it was observed the car moved forward. (Weird) I also noticed when taking it out of P to N, it would freely move between N and D without depressing the shift button, but won't move into the P or S positions without depressing the shift button.
It's acting like it is stuck in D, and the engine won't turn-over while in P. I haven't tried starting it while positioned in R yet while in the garage (obviously). I'm hoping it is the fwd bushing and not the rear bushing.
Good feedback all around!👍😎
Thanks Kevin, now I have a 2k lb paperweight in my garage. Delphi is out of business,there are NO parts available for the 05 c6, what now?
We’re you also getting check engine code p0700?
There’s other manufacturers that make the parts.
Great video really helpful keep up the amazing job.
Thank you for your video. It saved my butt last night. Fuel pump relay was bad. I never would have guessed the fuel pump relay would keep it from even cranking over.
I had worked my way through about half your list, with no luck, when I decided to pull a battery cable, let the car sit for a few minutes and reconnect it. Sure enough, it started right up. Quirky electronics in these cars, truly quirky.
I have this issue and it's caused buy the worm gear in the steering column not disengaging. That's the buzzing sound you hear when you start the car. I had it replaced once ($800) and the issue started again. When you disconnect and reconnect the battery you will hear the worm drive spin/reset. I ended up putting a manual battery terminal disconnect on the negative side and it's been working that way for about 5 years. It's a pain to open the hood, get out, flip the the disconnect, wait a few seconds, reconnect, etc. but it's better than paying for a new worm gear.
Thx so much for posting this. My 2005C6 has been giving me trouble starting for a number of months now. Only happens occasionally but has left me stranded a dozen times. Dealer can’t figure out as it always starts while in the shop. I’m listing these possible items for them to check.
Thank you for your video! Been having some issues with my shifter and as soon as you said it, realized that was my problem. It didn't think it was in park, so didn't wanna start.
Glad I could help
I subscribed. Thanks for the tips
Can you show me how to unclipped those bcm plugs please. Don't want to break them
Thanks! Mine turned out to be the ground wire by the battery. Symptom was intermittent, dark dash after hitting start. After a few seconds it would light up again. If i put a jump box on i could overcome the bad ground. Ever since cleaning the ground it starts first try every time. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing
I watched this. Was useful. My problem with 2011 z06 was starter was cooked. When I took it out the brass bolt was cracked off inside the starter and fell right out. Good thing because it would of been impossible to get off. New starter and it started faster than ever before.
Awesome video
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻 muy completo tu video, gracias
Great content. I’m looking to buy ab2009 C6 and the owner changed the starter already but it still starts when it wants to. I don’t have much info on exactly how it goes. Do you recommend it or stay away from it? It is priced very good. Thanks
Good video
Out..freegin…standing!
MF Fuel pump relay
Cheers and Happy New Year!
Anyone know where I can get the fuse box cover/cap? Been looking everywhere but can’t seem to find it they only sell the fuse panel when I just need the cap
Have you thought about a wiring your dash cam to the rear view mirror (like radar detectors wire tap)? Not sure where you have your dash cam mounted. Great tips thanks.
I was thinking about doing that to see if it alleviates the problem I’ll give it a try thanks
The 300 km/h threw me off. At first, I thought that was mph! Had to look twice.
What size is that bolt holding the bcm in?
Do a video on p2138 ecu code and the bulletin fix
Good video i have a C6 grand sport 2012 that it doesn't find key fob some times new bat.?
That’s where I’d start
@@KevinJonesCZcams i tried a new fob and battery no change
Do you happen to know the part number for the clutch position sensor that you show? I've been dealing with an issue for a while and haven't been able to narrow it down. I get a P0807 code most of the time so I'm going to replace the 13597429 switch but can't seem to find the info on the one you show after the 10 minute mark.
here you go.
Part# D2214A - ACDelco
Part# 14094368 - GM
Great video. I have a question about my C5 2001 corvette. My fuse box got some water due to not cleaning my otters and water got in.
I remove all fuses and clean them and replace a couple that needed to be replaced I also clean the actual box for the fuses and relays put it all back together and I still can’t get my Corvette to start do you have any ideas thank you
Sam
The water could have completed a circuit and shorted out a different component or maybe even shorted the board out on the back side of the fuse box.
@@KevinJonesCZcams thank you I will check into that.
Btw just subscribed
I'm dealing with that dash event. It's been going on for a year now abd getting worse First thing I notice now is the remote is not working and new battery in it. I try to start when this event happens(it's intermitten, more often and longer to reset. I hear a single click, dash goes black but then I fI just watch and wait the dash goes crazy, light, check engine and other messages. I walk away and the next day it runs fine. What could this be? My machanic seems baffled. Thanks
I cleaned all the ground terminals when I had this problem and it went away but can’t confirm it’s it.
What my 05c6 does is that all lights comes on and when I press my clutch car will shut down and what I have to do is disconnect the battery a couple of times and put my key fob on the glove box, sometimes it clicks 3,4 times and it shut down, previous owner told me it could be a bypass call “ steering wheel column” and I’m thinking that could be cuz sometimes the dashboard says “steering wheel column service” but others it say “key fob not detected” so what do you think it could be?
When my column lock came up on mine I ended up having to replace the column lock you can always just do a column lock bypass if you didn’t doesn’t this already. I would start there.
Yes! I heard about the bypass, but base on what I said do you think that could be the problem?
It is hard to tell for sure but yes I would start with that if it was my car.
Hi Kevin, I have a 05 base and about a month ago I ran out of fuel and the car shut off, since then it’s been a hit or a miss trying to get it to turn on. Once it’s on I can take it around the block but getting back to the house my door controls lose power, service vehicle and fuel system come on and won’t shift out of park. Once I turn it off I lose power to my dash, stereo, and tail lights. I’ve checked fuses, relays, grounding, and voltage but still nothing. I really don’t want to take it to a Chevy dealer and pay a arm and a leg. Also, my ignition light is green but just clicks when I try and crank it.
I see this post is 1 yr old. Did you figure it out my car has every issue you just described happening.
Except I never ran outta gas.
Hey Kevin I'm getting a electric cracking sound on the passenger side. Sometimes the car starts no problem and others it's black dash no start even with a jump start. Last night it failed at a gas station. Couldn't open doors, couldn't put windows up, couldn't put the car in neutral. Had it towed home and disconnected the battery because the radio wouldn't shut off. Connected the battery this morning and everything works fine car started right up. Any thoughts?
It’s hard to say but something like that happened to me and that is when I cleaned all the ground wire connections for the first time and it never happened again for me (not saying that’s the problem but a good starting point). So I would start there.
I have a C6 Corvette that forgets the FOB. I have changed the stock radio, the Theft Deterrent System, BCM, changed the batteries, the FOBs, FOB Batteries and it still forgets the FOB {FOB NOT DETECTED}. The only way it turns on is when I disconnect the battery, and on reconnect, it cranks up like a champ. Any ideas what it could be? Thank you Captain
I can’t think of anything off hand. That sounds like a hard one. If you come up with a solution, please post back with the fix, we would like to hear what it is.
Fighting a major drain on a c6 then when we get a boost no start but the starter is fine need some help
What about after driving awhile turn off the engine and try to start it back up and it won't start? It will crank but really slow. It will not start until the starter cooled off for about an hour. Maybe I need a new starter or crank sensor. I have changed the cam sensor already and no affect. Let me know thanks.
Hard to tell. Take a look at the starter. Make sure the connections are good and the terminal is not cracked or broken.
Kevin: What is the correct size and number for the FOB battery. I ordered off the spec sheet and the battery I received is too large.
It is a CR 2032. 3V.
Hey Kevin, you ever heard of the c6 corvette sticks in park, mine sometimes won’t come out of park I have to keep pumping the breaks it’s annoying… just wondering what’s causing this issue?
I heard the problem was specifically traced to the "it is in park" sensor that is an integral part of the shifter assembly.
@@KevinJonesCZcams thanks very much Kevin, my corvette is put away until the spring time I live in Canada and it’s cold here -27 with lots of snow , I will try your solution in April ,take care…
Thx 🤍🤍
My car doesn’t start, cranks, has spark, fuel, new fob I’m confused
I’m assuming you tried everything in the video? May have to hook a computer up to it and see what it has to say.
Typical GM issues
Pretty car but
