This copper line is not allowed in germany for brake lines because its burst pressure is too low and it will not hold as long as steel line when its bended or flexed. They check that when You drive to the technical inspection. (MOT)

On the FX3 suspension, the system does a self check at every key on. It will rotate the gears to full stop each way to sense where the shock is currently set. It is an extremely basic system. 13 = Left rear time out 14 = Right Front time out 21 = Left Front time out 22 = Right Rear time out 31 = Left Front out of position 32 = Right Front out of position 33 = Left Rear out of position 34 = Right Rear out of position Out of position codes are triggered if the computer senses that the actuator has not found the end stop position on the shock. Time out codes are triggered if the system is responding slowly due to a shock gear binding. Remove actuator at the indicated shock. Turn the valve gear on the shock stops after about 3 / 4 of turn, then you have a bad actuator. If it spins around continuously then it is a bad shock 41 = Selective ride control switch short to voltage 42 = Selective ride control switch open contacts You can have a code 42 if you leave the switch in between indented positions 43 = selective ride control switch circuit open. 23 = If you start the car more than 3 times and do not move the car this code will set. Drive 3-6 feet and the light will go out.

Would be nice, preservation/history-wise to have with my car. But $100...........?

While I admire your enthusiasm in getting the vette back on the road its been painful watching like the blind leading the blind from the first episode with jonny running after the vette hoping it would start 🤦‍♂️ just so wrong. And those shocks you should get them tested to make sure the adjustable spring rate dampening is working correctly inside the shock you will not see it by plugging it in and looking at the shock 🤦‍♂️
@Auto_Funk
@Auto_Funk 28 дней назад
Thanks Pepy! We don’t pretend to be experts! Either way it‘s a fully functioning road legal car so we’ve not done too bad considering the budget, lack of resources and not a lot of knowledge! We established the shocks *seem to be* okay therefore the budget allocated for rebuild can go elsewhere for now… eventually they will be checked professionally…
