Camaro computer symptoms
I have a 81' z-28,the computer I had to remove out to get my XM box which was located right behind it to check the antenna lead.Well in doing so I noticed that-well the engine was running but when I pulled down the computer a bit it died! Well to make a long story short I disconnected to 2 main plugs to the computer and it started right up and ran fine.So while it was running I plugged both main plugs back in one at a time but noticing when I started to plug the 2nd plug back in it would kill again.On that 2nd right plug there are 2 jump wires,they look factory,one is black and one is green,I noticed that when I unplugged those 2 jump wires and plugged the 2nd.main plug back into the computer it ran fine,I then while it was running plugged back in the black jump wire-it has a plug(connects to another wire),all ok but when I plugged in the green wire it would die! The green wire jumps off of the pink wire(which is connected to the brake switch)
Well it's temporary disconnected now but I noticed my idle is at 1,000 instead of 750 where it used to be.Any suggestions? I feel that maybe a wire or something in the computer may have been burned out or something.Runs fine and smooth,all electronics work but idle is a little high.I think my brake switch needs to be adjusted but brake lights work when depressed,needs a little to much pressure to make lights go on as it needs adjusting.
I'm concerned,I think my check engine light is out,will check that tomorrow.
Hope I didn't burn up my computer,need some advice.
Jeff.
