Instrument Cluster Warning light ?

hssaini · 12-05-2005, 10:17 PM

I just received the SERVICE MANUAL for the GTO.

On page 8-278 Instrument Panel, Gages and Console.

Item marked #12 is "1->4" and description says SHIFT 1->4 Manual Transmission Indicator.

Does anyone know what that indicator means?

I have accidently seen it come on once while accelerating fast.

Thanks

thts your skip shift indicator. That light is disabled when you run the skip shift eliminator.

Please explain? What does a skip shift indicator do when on? How to turn it on/off?

Thanks

PS on 11-94 under Power Outlets. #7 is marked as Front Cigar Lighter?

It seems that they are calling RADIO TURN OFF/ON AND VOLUME KNOB a FRONT CIGAR LIGHTER?

its a gadget that forces you to shift from 1st to 4th in order to save fuel. Its complete crap for any car to have but GM's idea to earn a better fuel economy number. To disable it, order up from GTODEALER a skip shift eliminator. That will turn it off permanently and you can then shift to any gear you want, whenever you want.

are you in the owners manual? Because I have a copy of the 05 and 06, along with the supplements, and I dont see chapter 11, mine only goes up to 5 for the 05 model.
