    You keep working at it! You are moving in the right direction. I like the fact you have the equipment and the time and you put in the effort.

      Thank you, the shop is a huge help. Back when I worked on the street, doing a gas tank seemed impossible to me, now it is much easier.

    Great that you got in running. I noticed it has the Visual Information Center. I have a 92 Trofeo that I have had 2 VIC's "flatline". Do you know of anybody that repairs these Cathode Ray Tubes? Thanks

      So I bought the car like this. to start the car I have to put a fuse in #7 and to turn it off I have to take it off.

      @@jessejaime7448 sounds like someone hacked up the wiring harness to bypass the VATs security system. Unfortunately that will take some time to figure out in person to see what they hacked up

    We have to start calling you Dr Oldsmobile! Y’all are way to young to remember the Dr Oldsmobile ads but maybe that would be a cool Chanel name change 👍

    Hey Justin, what do you think would be wrong with my Trofeos power locks, work with the remote, but not with any of the door power lock buttons?

    • @jalopyjustin

      Probably a fuse is my guess, start poking around your fuse box with a multimeter.
