stuipd trivia for 04 Impala

Post by mokena208 »

Just thought would pass this on to others who may have this problem too..... I was working on a brand new 2004 Impala 9C1 and was getting ready to connect some stuff in the trunk and realized that the 100A service did not work. I called the dealer and of course some suggestions but no real help.

I proceeded to tear the car apart and trace the lines looking for a break only to find that there is a connector (which of course was not connected) in the passenger side kick plate that connects the two power leads to the battery line, why there is a splice in a power run is beyond me, but hey, its a chevy....

So I guess someone was asleep on the line that day....

I hope that this may help someone who has had the same aggravation!

That comes disconnected in quite a few of the cars. I figure it's agood idea since most installers don't use it- let alone know it's even there.
