DIC question


Recommended Posts

ok, Do the older 88-90? DICs use the same connector that the 91-93 DICs does?

I want to say no.

 

Here is a better question....Is the "car" that is on the 91-93 cars. If its a 4door does the image show a 4 door and if its a 2 door show a 2 door car?

 

Also, the DIC's are not specific for a STE right? You can put a STE DIC into a non STE car the only thing that makes it special is the wiring inside the car not the DIC itself right?

the dic and the harness came from 2 different cars. The DIC is from a '92 GTP and the DIC harness is from a TGP. I'm wondering because I see one large white connector that looks like is could be it, but it is too large for the DIC thats going into the car.

 

It could be another connector soemwhere else on the harness, and I'm just not seeing it, the harness is HUGE

Try connecting it?

 

But I'm fairly certain they are different.

the pig tails are the same.....I'm almost 100% sure of this.....

 

I'd check gearheads website though

They are physically the same. The pinouts are identical as far as FSM's go as well.

PS...

 

Sounds like you might have the end of the harness that plugs into the C200 on the firewall, and you're missing the blue 16 pin that goes into the DIC.

Same. I put a newer one in my TGP.

I think the one in the 90 Turbo STE is the same as 91-93.

I don't think anyone answered this one!

I'm pretty sure they all show a 4-door car, because only STE's had the extra monitoring function enabled.

My car is a 2-door and had the DIC in it from the factory, and it showed a sedan on the screen. They all came this way. Only (T)STE's had functioning icons in them, though. Wiring that in to a coupe is a PITA!

Good to know GM is that cheap.

 

Yeah, it sucks. There's no reason the GTP shouldn't have had functioning icons. At any rate kid, this thing will work fine in your car, just get the other end of the harness.
