Skip Shift Eliminator Problem. Need help. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

srevoal · 11-02-2009, 12:56 PM

I bought a skip shift eliminator for my 2ss/rs m6 and when I went to install it I noticed its connectors only had 2 pins. The car's connectors seem to be 4 pin connectors. Am I looking at the wrong spot or did they send me the wrong model? I've tried contacting the vendor but am getting no response. I don't want to use Paypal to get me money back if I'm just installing it in the wrong place.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You're trying to install it in the wrong place...it's a 2-pin connector....lemme see if i can find you a picture.

it sounds like hes trying to plug it into the 02 sensors

Hope these help. They helped me

and if you have trouble putting it in reverse afterwards, put it in the other 2-pin connector

Much more helpful than the manufacturer. Thanks for the help guys.

finally got around to installing the skip shift eliminator. Those pics were very helpful. No more unwanted 1-4

These pictures were a big help.
Thanks

I agree, these pics were a life saver. I happened upon this thread right before I installed my hurst and sse jumper. I would have for sure plugged it into the reverse selonoid because it is so obvious as to where the CAGS is tucked up on top.

Thanks!!

Yeah, I remember putting mine in and I was going to take pictures, but I forgot. I was sure happy when I put it back on the ground and it worked.

Michael_Js · 11-16-2009, 01:20 PM

Great job!

I don't even think to look at the DIC any longer to see the skip message

Just out of curiousity, is this the same as on the GTO? If so will the 2.2k ohm resistor mod work? My dad is looking at getting a new camaro to compete with my goat, and don't see spending $30 on something that can be fixed for $0.99 from radio shack.

a 2.2K ohm 0.5 watt resistor from Radio Shack which costs about $1

A 2.2k ohm resistor and some electrical tape worked for me for a couple years. Never drive in the rain or snow. Then had it tuned out via HP Tuners. Good to know they kept the same concept. Good easy to negotiate way around the gas guzzler tax!
