1996 CHEVROLET CORVETTE battery

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex.
Its many parts have to be of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle is to have really good braking.
Vehicles we design and test have top-quality GM brake
parts in them, as your Corvette does when it
is new.
When you replace parts of your braking system
-- for
example, when your brake linings wear down and you
have to have new ones put in
-- be sure you get new
genuine GM replacement parts. If you don’t, your
brakes may no longer work properly. For example, if
someone puts in brake linings that are wrong for your
vehicle, the balance between your front and rear brakes
can change
-- for the worse. The braking performance
you’ve come to expect can change in many other ways if
someone puts in the wrong replacement brake parts.
Battery
Every new Corvette has a Delco Freedom’ battery. You
never have to add water to one of these. When it’s time
for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom
battery. Get one that has the replacement number shown
on the original battery’s label. For battery replacement,
see your dealer
or the Corvette Service Manual. To
purchase a service manual, see “Service and Owner
Publications” in the Index.
Vehicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, take
off the black, negative (-) cable from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt if
you
aren’t careful. See “Jump Starting” in the Index
for tips on working around a battery without getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer storage periods.

Your Corvette has one
I single fuse underhood for
the underhood lamps.
The
fuse is under the hood on
the driver’s sidemarker
lamp assembly.
Leaving your
hood open and your underhood lamps on
can
drain your battery. If you need to keep the hood
open for an extended period of time, remove the
underhood lamps fuse.
Ride Control Fuse
Vehicles equipped with the
optional Real Time

system are fuse protected
with a fuse located in the
ABS compartment behind

To access this fuse, pull back the carpet, remove the
screw and lift the cover.
