I came in for a minute to look for another ALDL diagram, we looked in the manual and it said to jumper a wire to terminal G on ALDL (same as you, as I just read) and in the picture it showed a pin in there...mine doesn't have anything in pin G...but just to make sure...we stuck it in there anyway, and nothing happened...lol, of course!
According to the diagram there are pins in A, B, D, E, F, and G. Mine has A, B, D, E, F, K, and M...this manual is for 1982-1992, so the diagram could be incorrect for mine? (There is no I terminal per diagram)

Also have a new troublecode that is code 54-fuel pump circuit (which...we already know that there is a problem...but at least my check engine light is working again...progress!

You will have a pin in E & M, they are spliced together behind the ALDL connector. Pin E is for 160 baud and pin M is for 8192 baud communications, but either one will do either baud.
Sounds like someone moved a pin from G to K on your ALDL

keep up the good work...progress is good.
hurricane is gone now and waiting to see what IKE will do.
came out OK from GUSTAV. Local city did not...BATON ROUGE got pretty tore up.

let us know about the fuel as soon as you figure it out.
you should be able to start the car when you figure the fuel out.

still wishing you luck.

Any progress on this car yet?
Be nice to know if any of us helped in some way to resolve the issues.

Let us know what's going on please...Thanks.

Well...ha ha...actually we had a different problem come up that is currently lagging our progress on the Camaro...the 60 mph winds we had from a storm messed (actually..ripped) up the roof and when it rained, rain was pouring in the shop...messing up everything, so we had to stop work on the Camaro and fix the roof. Done with one side of the roof (the worse side), and haven't had a pretty day to work on the other side of the roof. However...when we were messing with the roof, the electricity started sparking and smoking, so we had to shut the breaker off so no more electricity would go out there (darn ppl and their bad wiring jobs..pff!), and so we are currently at a standstill on the Camaro. Glad to see that you are still interested in the outcome, sorry to deliver bad news.
