Your Corvette, when new, had Goodyear Extended
Mobility Tires (EMT). There’s no spare tire, no tire
changing equipment and no place to store a tire in the
vehicle. Extended Mobility Tires perform
so well
without any air that a Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) is
used to alert you if a tire has lost pressure.
The Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) has a sensor on
each road wheel that transmits to a receiver on the
instrument panel.
The system operates on a radio frequency subject to
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry and Science Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry and
Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device. Changes
or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
If a tire’s inflation pressure is between
5 psi (35 kPa)
and 25 psi
(170 kPa), you will see a message on the
Driver Information Center. This message will show
which tire is underinflated and two chimes will sound.
An example would be LOW TIRE PRESSURE-LR.
This would mean that the inflation pressure in your left
rear tire is between
5 psi (35 Pa) and 25 psi (170 Wa).
If the inflation pressure in the tire drops below
5 psi
(35 kPa), the message would read FLAT TIRE-LR and
four chimes will sound. See “Driver Information
Center” in the Index.
The TPM will also alert you if a tire’s pressure is higher
than 42 psi (290 kPa). The message will show which tire
is overinflated and two chimes will sound. An example
would be
HIGH PRESSURE-LR. This would mean that
the inflation pressure in your left rear tire is higher than
42 psi
(290 Wa). See “Driver Information Center” in
the Index.
If a tire pressure message appears
on the Driver
Information Center, stop as soon as you can. Have the
tire pressures checked and set to those shown on your
Tire Loading Information label.

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.
Accessory Power Plug
This plug can be used to connect electrical equipment
such as a cellular phone or CB radio. The accessory
power plug is located at the top left corner
of the
passenger’s side footwell. Be sure to follow the
installation instructions included with the equipment.
To use the accessory power plug:
1. Remove the toe-board panel by lifting up on the
latches at the top
of each corner of the panel.
2. Locate the black connector at the left top corner of
the compartment near the body control module
above the two white diagnostic connectors.
3. Disconnect the connector pigtail by pulling forward
on the plastic locking tab and pull the connection
apart from the wire harness.
The plug has three separate wires:
The orange wire connects to battery power.
The yellow wire connects to ignition power. Power is
The black wire connects to ground.

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.
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 identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t have a
spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. 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 correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The interior fuse center is
on the passenger’s side of
the vehicle, under the
instrument panel and under
the toe board.
Remove the toe board and carpet covering
to access the
fuse block. Then turn the fuse block door
knob and pull
the door to access the fuses.
