Default Re: Cabin Fan

Well I ordered the module from Rock Auto and I sent it back today. It was the only one they show for '92 ZR-1 and it won't fit in the evap box. It's too long and hits inside the the box not allowing it to be bolted in and sealed, and I had to pay to have the part shipped, both ways. Any other suggestions on suppliers?

Which one did you order from the Rockauto? AC Delco?
Another option is to find one on ebay, compare visually with your old one. If not functioning when installed, at least you'll get a refund.

Eckler's Corvette shows three different versions - 86-89' 90-92 and 93-96.

Well the saga continues. The only one pictured with Ecklers was the one that will not fit. I went to the AC Delco web site and they show the same one as Rock and Ecklers. So I guess the Evap. box for the ZR-1 is different from an LT-1. I took all the part #'s off the old one and could not find anything compatable. If you look closely you can tell it was out sourced where as the original is solid state made in Japan. I guess it is plugging and unplugging the blower fan for now.

Has anyone dealt with any reputable Corvette salvagers?

I show the original GM part # 16086891. It should be the same for 90-92 with option C68.
There is one listed on Amazon by Corvette Central pictured.

Thanks for posting your solution so people searching in the future have info to go on.

My guess is that GM changed the design for better cooling and they used that same module on several different models and didn't have any way to test fit it in everything they used it in.
