My L99 Died today - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

L99 · 07-03-2010, 11:23 PM

My 2010 Camaro just died today I have 5k on the car. I made a left hand turn onto interstate ramp and it just died. Almost everything quit working.
It wont crank over the fuel gauge does not work, the radio, onstar, ignition all dead.
The display between tack and speedometer reads service stability control.
The traction control and stability control display lights show both turned off but when it quit both were turned on.
I had the car in normal drive, and had moderate throttle applied.
Checked all fuses ok and yes it has fuel 1/2 tank.
We plugged in a computer to the system but can't communicate with onboard computer.

Anyone with similar problem please post
I hope to know more monday.

Update!
It turns out there is a fuseable link in the trunk that blew out. An added boost-a-pump caused it to overload the circuit.

was this the KB boost-a-pump? I remember reading that some people were having an issue with it when it was wired to the wrong side of the line.
