Your cart is empty.Over 126,000 1997-2004 Corvettes were recalled due to steering column lock system problems. A column lock failure can disable these C5 Corvettes: All 97-04 manual trans, 97-00 auto trans, 01-04 European export auto trans. Note: Only US Domestic 01-04 w/auto trans are not susceptible to a column lock failure. Recall work has disabled the physical column lock in most C5s, but failures can still occur in these Corvettes resulting in Pull Key, Wait 10 Seconds and Service Column Lock messages, and the dreaded 2 mph fuel cut-off. If your C5’s steering wheel still locks with the key out, a failure can cause all of the above problems, AND leave the steering wheel stuck locked. The LMC5 simulates a perfectly functioning column lock system, installs easily in the passenger footwell , makes no permanent modifications to your Corvette, and requires NO removal or alteration of any recall procedures or any other column lock replacement device. The 100% solid-state LMC5, with no moving parts, repairs and/or prevents virtually ALL column lock failures from disabling your Corvette. We have 3 different LMC5 Kits available. Please choose the right one for you: LMC5 - If your steering wheel turns freely. LMC5 & Unlocker Combo - If your steering wheel is stuck in the locked position. Our Unlocker can help unlock the steering wheel. LMC5 & Unlocker & Tool Kit Combo - If your steering wheel is stuck in the locked position. This combo includes 1/4 and 5/16 wrenches, so you don’t need anything else to complete the LMC5 installation and unlock your steering wheel. Our tech support team has worked with thousands of column lock systems and we provide free, US based, telephone tech support 9-5 pst, Mon-Sat. We can answer every imaginable column lock question and provide complete installation assistance. If your column is stuck locked, don’t despair! We’ve never found a column that we couldn’t help get unlocked!All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

I bought this because my steering column got locked up. It did what I needed it to do. I had some trouble with the installation, and I called the customer service number, and he was helpful and walked to troubleshoot it. Everything works now will be recommended to others when facing that problem.

What I love about this product is that it simply works. There are quite a few steps to follow but nothing one can't handle. I recommend that If you are not sure on a step or you aren't getting the expected results, call their customer service. they are eager to help and will explain in detail in part of the installation that you aren't sure about and provide solutions if you aren't getting the results expected.

I took my time with the installation of the LMC5 module. The instructions are very clear to understand. I like that the instructions took into account many possible scenarios the installer may confront. I think that it helps to not jump into conclusions, as far as whether to install the brown wire or not. After the installation was completed, I had both doors opened when I turn the key to on, but I did not start the car. The first thing I saw was door ajar....so I turn the car back to off. Closed the car doors and turned the car back to the on position a second time. I did see only once the pull key message, so I thought that maybe I needed to connect the brown wire, but I thought that maybe the BCM may need a third attempt to reset or configure itself. I choose not to connect the brown wire and started the car. It ran fine and no pull key was seen. I test drove in my driveway and then took the C5 corvette for a long 60 mile drive. I had 6 successful starts with no pull key message, so I am assuming that the brown wire is not needed and that the module works great. The reason that I installed the LMC5 was that my car (May 1998 - Corvette, Automatic) started to shut off after barely going forward and backwards too, as people describe it "2 mph shutoff. " I believe that this module has fix my issue. I feel so much safer with the LMC5 installed on my Corvette. Thank you.

In the part there was a bill/ receipt for 49.95, I paid Amazon three times more, kind of made me feel ripped off.
