    Authenticity Forum

    Maybe it's too early to have an Authenticity Forum? Maybe the participation of current users would be minimal? Consider the words of W. P. Kinsella in his book Shoeless Joe, more commonly heard through the movie Field of Dreams, "If you build it, [they] will come." If we have authenticity...

    1992 Factory CD Player

    Regarding the quality of those CD players and skipping as mentioned by @DerekTheGreat, I had a 1992 Cadillac Brougham d'Elegance with a factory CD player, also very rare, and it worked flawlessly. I assume it was the same Delco guts that was used across GM, but maybe not. Skipping was usually...

    Authenticity Forum

    I would like to see an Authenticity Forum. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I'm interested in how our trucks came from the factory, especially regarding restoring them to that condition. My primary club affiliation has been the Cadillac and LaSalle Club and like many clubs, we have...

    1992 Factory CD Player

    Has anyone ever come across a factory 1992 CD player? I saw it in the 1992 Truck Order Guide/Automotive Electronics section. See picture here. I'm refering to the in dash unit at the bottom right of the picture, but also note the six disc unit.

    Question about factory interior colors

    They had four basic trim colors for 1988-1998, Beige/Neutral, Red, Blue, and Gray. I know Blue changed from Dark or Very Dark Blue to Navy Blue around 1994 or 1995. (Anyone know when?). Maybe they added or altered other colors in later years - I'm not certain, but never within the same year...

    What is this called and where can I get one?

    I tried looking on the AC/Delco site as well as others which is why I need to know the name or part number to try and find it. I've got parts books for 1992-1993 as well as the complete parts software virtual machine covering all of the applicable years from eManuals and I can't find that part...

    What is this called and where can I get one?

    Ahh, I see, thanks for the clarification @movietvet.

    What is this called and where can I get one?

    Just to be clear, the metal piece that attaches to the connector is what I need, not the connector or wires. Some of the responses indicate this and some don't. @movietvet I'm not sure what you mean when you say "does not get a ground there" as the ground wire from the sending unit/fuel pump...

    What is this called and where can I get one?

    Connector C407 where the pigtail from the fuel pump and sending unit plug into the connector at the frame near the gas tank has a metal part on it that I'm missing. You can see it in the picture. It uses the ground screw to keep the connector on top of the frame rail. Is there a part number...

    LEDs, Resistors, Flashers - Should I just give up?

    That's good you figured it out. If you have any comments to add to post #3 in this thread, please do. It sounds like the very first sentence of post #3 is what you did to solve the problem. Annoying how these circuits are wired in my opinion. Enjoy your LEDs!

    LEDs, Resistors, Flashers - Should I just give up?

    I'll jump over to your thread and see if I have any insight.

    Stuck with Solid blinkers once I added New led corner markers ?

    I had/have the same problem with my original 1992 C1500 sockets. I surprised it is not universal. I tried four different bulbs and finally modified the sockets with a cutting edge run around the lip of the socket. See this video for details on how I fixed it.

    Fuel Gauge way past Full - How to test wiring at tank?

    Thanks for that information Frank. One thing I need to clarify is that my gauge is way past Full AND it never moves.

    Fuel Gauge way past Full - How to test wiring at tank?

    I have fixed the issue. It was the sending unit. A wire had become disconnected after it's connector broke off. I installed the new Delphi one. I had a bit of a scare when I filled up the tank and the gauge stayed at Empty. I got about a quarter mile from the gas station and it went up to...

    Fuel Gauge way past Full - How to test wiring at tank?

    I think it is the sending unit in the tank. I just got a new one (Delphi) and will install it this week (I hope). I did a continuity test on the wires using a snap on splicer that bites through the insulation and the wires seem fine. I'm not sure what those splice connection things are...
