Finish Damage
Any stone chips, fractures or deep
scratches
in the finish should be repaired
right away.
Minor chips and scratches can be repaired
with touch-up materials available from
your dealer or other service outlets.
Larger areas of finish damage can be
corrected
in your dealer’s body and
paint shop.
Underbody Maintenance
Chemicals used for ice and snow removal
and dust control can collect on the
underbody. If these are not removed,
accelerated corrosion (rust) can occur on
the underbody parts such as fuel lines,
frame, floor pan, and exhaust system even
though they have corrosion protection.
At least every spring, flush these
materials from
the underbody with plain
water. Clean any areas where mud and
other debris can collect. Dirt packed in
closed areas of the frame should be
loosened before being flushed. Your
dealer or an underbody vehicle washing
system can do this for you.

Fiberglass Springs
I NOTICE:
Don’t use corrosive or acidic
cleaning agents, engine degreasers,
aluminum cleaning agents or other
harsh solvents to clean fiberglass
springs; they’ll damage the springs.
Chemical Paint Spotting
Some weather and atmospheric conditions
can create a chemical fallout. Airborne
pollutants can fall upon and attack
painted surfaces on your vehicle. This damage can take two
forms: blotchy,
ringlet-shaped discolorations, and small
irregular dark spots etched into the paint
surface.
Although no defect in the paint job causes
this, Chevrolet will repair, at no charge to
the owner,
the surfaces of new vehicles
damaged by this fallout condition within
12 months or 12,000 miles (20 000 km)
Df purchase, whichever comes first.

I Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN)
:his is the legal identifier for your
lorvette. It appears on a plate in the front
orner of the instrument panel, on the
.river’s side. You can see it if you look
hrough the windshield from outside your
.chicle. The VIN also appears on the
rehicle Certification and Service Parts
abels and the certificates of title and
,egistration.
hgine Identification
The eighth character in your VIN is the
mgine code. This code will help you
dentify your engine, specifications, and
meplacement parts.

Service Parts
Identification Label
You’ll find this label on the underside of
your console storage compartment. It’s
very helpful if you ever need to order
parts. On this label is:
0 your VIN,
.* the model designation,
paint information, and
a list of all production options and
special equipment.
Be sure that this label is not removed
from the vehicle.
Add-on Electrical
Equipment
NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to
your Corvette unless you check with
your dealer first. Some electrical
equipment can damage your vehicle
and the damage wouldn’t be covered
by your warranty. Some add-on
electrical equipment can keep other
components from working as they should.
Your vehicle has an air bag system.
Before attempting to add anything
electrical to your Corvette, see “Servicing
Your Air Bag-Equipped Corvette” in the
Index.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are
protected from short circuits by a
combination of maxi-fuses, mini-fuses
and circuit breakers. This greatly reduces
the chance of fires caused by electrical
problems.
There are three fuse centers on your
vehicle. One
is in the right side of your
instrument panel. Turn the knob and pull
the door to access the fuses. The other
two fuse blocks are in the
engine compartment. One is part of the
Forward Lamp wiring harness
(A), and
the other is part of the ECM-Engine
wiring harness
(B).
Look at the silver-colored band inside
the fuse. If the band is broken or melted,
replace the fuse. Be sure you replace a
bad fuse with a new one of the correct
size.
If you ever have a problem on the road
and don’t have a spare fuse, you can
borrow one of the correct value. Just pick
some feature of your vehicle that you can
get along without
- like the radio or
cigarette lighter
- and use its fuse, if it
is the size you need. Replace it as soon
as you can.
Headlights
The headlight wiring is protected by a
circuit breaker
in the switch. An electrical
overload will cause the lights to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain
off. If this
happens, have your headlight wiring
checked right away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected
by a circuit breaker and a fuse. If the
motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc.,
the wiper will stop until the motor cools.
If the overload is caused by some
electrical problem and not snow, etc.,
be sure to get
it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power
Options
Circuit breakers protect the power
windows and other power accessories.
When the current load is too heavy,
the circuit breaker opens and closes,
protecting the circuit until the problem
is fixed or goes away.
