Just upgraded to the ls1 style dash, now I have no start. I have power, windows work, fuel pump primes, lights and all work but no vroom. I did break the clutch switch, but replaced it, found no loose connections or wires. Need some help with where to start probing or looking. No blown fuses either. Maybe I pulled a wire loose somewhere and dont realize it, but its dark and my head is pounding so, Im stopping for tonight.


Anyone have some input where to start tomorrow? what I should check etc?

Its not bad as a one man job, I took my time doing it. Just gotta watch out for the zoo of wires and connectors around the steering column.

found the ignition switch may have broken as well. tested it last night and didnt get any voltage, think the dash may have rested on it, and broke it or something. hopefully its not in the column.

check the vats box you need to keep the one off your old dash and keep it on the wireing or it wont start because the chip on the key wont match what the new box says the key and box have to match to start the car. i learned this about the same way. the box is located up behind the radio.its about a 3x5 box
