The blower motor on the 1990 runs continuously even with the ignition switch off. The battery has to be disconnected to make it quit. I suspect a blower module GM#15-72530 if I have looked it up correctly. I have not removed it from the car yet but from online pictures it looks like some type of TO-3 package semiconductor on a heat sink. Maybe a FET? Has anyone figured out how to repair these modules or have a clue? Close to $100.00 is a lot for one semiconductor! I figure some of the guys here must have tackled this problem. Thanks, Terry

Thanks for the transaction Barney! Just what I needed. Terry

I need a new Delco coil assemby complete with ICM and mounting plate. Everything needed to upgrade from our '90 Magnavox system. A unit from a '91 should work fine? Thanks, Terry Jones

My 1990 will not start. I have tried ether in the intake and nothing. It has started and ran for about 15 seconds very rough. I checked the spark on one of the plugs with a spark tester. The spark is very weak and orange in color. Could this be the module? It is the original Magnavox coil system. I don't know what the circuit is on the module but maybe it cannot trigger the coils enough? The lemon only has 50,000 miles on it. Any suggestions welcome friends!

Good article, must work similar to a vortex

I modified our GMC truck to R-134a and now wish I had not. It just does not cool near as well as it used to. I am now going to use Enviro-Safe in the R-12 Reatta when needed. Freeze12 is getting very expensive. The Enviro-Safe is compatible with both systems I understand, besides it is cheaper. I will also use it in the truck. They have a decent website for it. Terry

The factory service manual compressor mounting diagram is completely wrong from our '90 Reatta. I sent Barney some details a few years ago. Don't believe everything you read in the manual! The schematics for the power steering cutout are wrong as well. When I get the time I will send the info to Ronnie as well. Maybe some models were different on the brackets? Just some input. Terry

Just got my hard drive back online. Ronnie you live in my area. Big - Lots has R134-A on sale for $8.00 a can. I am not depending on it, as usual they may be out of stock and have the other freon blend anyway in the basement. I do not have our reatta converted and have no intetion of doing so. I stil use Freeze12 in the reatta. Converted the truck to R-134A and it does not cool nearly as well. I did not know if you were interested (and anyone else) but might be of some help. Terry

We had a pretty good hailstorm a couple of weeks ago. My Wife turned it in to insurance (State Farm) maybe a bad idea. I assume they will probably balk at paying for body repair on a 20 year old car, maybe totaling it out? The adjuster has not been out to look at it yet. Does anyone on this forum have any ideas? Should we forget it and not get more involved before registering a claim? They have already been sniffing around and cancelled the insurance on one of my rental properties in Oak Ridge because no one is living there currently. Looks like we Jabbed a hornet's nest! Thanks in advance if anyone has any ideas. Terry

Thanks for your input on the codes from Advance. I ordered a battery charger from them (cheaper than Amazon) and used the code P20 but that is only good for online purchases. I asked the manager on the phone if I could have it shipped to the local store and he rudely said no. That they do not ship items to the store. I informed him that it would save me about $15.00 shipping but no luck. He said I would have to pay for it in advance anyway and the code would do no good. That is in the Lenoir City store, maybe somewhere else someone will have more luck. I ordered the Schumacher SE-1510MA it looks like a decent charger, especially with the discount. Terry

Carl Cowles is a fine guy to deal with. It was a toss up to get one from Jim, which I think a lot of, or get one with a warranty. Carl (Digital Dash Solutions) sent me one that did not work and paid for the return shipping. My display now works fine. $150.00

I just found out that R-134A is going out of style and ordered a few cans of Enviro-Safe for $5.00 a can from Ebay. It is supposed to be a replacement for R-12 as well as R-134A. The only downside is that I suspect that it might be slightly flamable. Any comments? Terry

I have not been checking out the forum for a couple of weeks but just happened to check out your post. I by coincidence checked RockAuto.com for the same thing and they have a few A/C Delco hood supports left. When doing a search go under body-hood supports. They have other brands as well but the previous poster brought up a good point that I had not thought of. Hope this helps, Terry Jones
