I have loss of performance power and the service
one of the computer sensors are probably bad if you have a code scanner see what codes are stored if you don't have one now's the time to buy one they all work the cheaper ones just tell you the codes ( 49.99 59.99 ) then you have to look them up in a booklet that comes with it the more expensive ones ( 89.99 and up ) will tell you the codes and tell you what they mean. there is a new one on the market that will give you the codes and give you the most popular fixes for the code right from the scanner . hope this helps
One of the headlight flipper/cover will not
Hello, my name is Ben. You probably know by now this is a common problem with Corvettes. Chevrolet uses a cheap plastic gear to raise and lower the headlights and it is prone to wear out. Most likely the gear has a broken or worn tooth and will need to be replaced. Several after market companies sell a new brass gear to replace the cheap plastic one. If you are handy, you should be able to rebuild the headlight assembly on your own, or if you search you can someone to rebuild it for you. Good luck and I hope this has helped you, Ben.

you must first have the computer scaned for codes, this will tell you where your problem is,it will store a code. this code give you an idea of the problem and what to check and test, the cruise and the handling are mostlikely caused by the same problem, its hard to tell you what to check without the results of the stored codes,.
Intermittent traction control computer failures
If the ABS/TCS lights are coming on then you could have a module problem.There is a bulletin for some ABS/TCS problems and it could be the module being bad or just needing reprogramming.The service bulletin is 01-05-25-004A.This could give you a possible code of c 1288 in the module.I would get the codes checked and if this code is in there then get the ABS/TCS module reprogrammed.Hope this helps.Let me know what you find.Good luck.
C5 2002 fuel gauge works from Full to 7/8 then
The sender unit in the fuel tank is bad. Sulfur in fuels destoy the contacts and cause this issue. You can do a search on fuel senders and sulfur problems and read for yourself.
All vehicles have this issue and and some fuels have more sulfur in them than others and sometimes you can get a bad batch at the same place you always fill up at. Sometimes the amount of sulfur in the fuel will cause a rotten egg smell coming out your exhaust
A/c stops running while driving my 2002 C5 corvette
Maybe a bad fuse on the temp control. The a/c it may be that you just need to refill the freon. Once the freon is low to a certain level it will not have enough pressure to kick on your compressor. I have seen my own car a few times that it was right on that level where it keeps kicking on then off because it needed to be filled. The cans of R-134A are about $6.99 plus the hose to fill it and you can easily do it yourself. If it doesn't need it then it won't take it, you can't overfill it so no harm done. If that is the issue you may want to try the freon with leak sealer combined.
Hi, 96 vs v6 commodore.when
Look for vacuum leaks had a similiar problem in my car. a small split in a hose can cause havoc, and is usually only noticeable at low revs, like changing gears in an auto and sitting at a set of traffic lights.
It can be a long process checking all the hoses but it will give you a good look round the engine.
