1992 ZR-1 VATS(?) problem - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Scott: I was only mentioning the pellet to rule that out.

Jim: The value I posted was what I measured with a meter, not what I read from the stripes on the resistor.

After further digging/googling I've come to the conclusion that my BCM/CCM may be failing (or have poor connections, I'll try cleaning the connectors before I go any further). An additional symptom that I didn't mention before because I didn't see how it could be related is that occasionally when I start my wipers first thing in the morning to clear the dew from the windshield, they won't stop. The best I can do is put them on intermittent. They will continue until I turn the car off and restart it, then they work normally. What I didn't realize is that the wipers (as well as VATS) are also controlled by the CCM/BCM.

If I can't repair/replace it, I'll still install the bypass module and jumper the starter relay just to be able to drive it.

Again, thanks to all who have responded.
