[Gmecm] FW: riviera troubles

[Scott Pearson]

I think these cars (much like the Olds Trofeo) store the odometer data in an 
EEPROM in the BCM. I don't think there's a VIN in the IPC of this early of a 
car. It is stored in the BCM, but I don't recall it having any function. 
I've never bothered to match it up to anything in my 88 Trofeo and it has 
always worked fine. I have swapped IPC's in the Trofeos without problems or 
ERROR many times.

When you say the dash "blew up" could you be a little more specific?
