hi i have a silverado 5.3 4x4 1999 ...and have a little rollover :laugh: ..i need to start the engine to fit in a new project ..what i need ...i don t have the cluster and the computer below the column i have all the rest of the truck complete (wiring ,pcm ,sensors)
Please reform this in the form of a question. I'd love to help you out but I cannot make out what you are trying to say. :doh:
:point:
what y need to start the engine ?cluster??or y don`t need the cluster
the cluster is needed for run the engine???
what else i need to run the engine
All you need to start a genIII or genIV engine is the original wiring harness and the PCM. The PCM needs to have the VATS(vehicle anti-theft system) turned off. I take it that you want to put that engine into a different vehicle or you're going to strip it down to bare nothing for offroad use?
Sorry, didn't realize you are from Chile. English as a second language explains it. Don't feel bad, we have guys from Kentucky that can't form an intelligent sentence. :thumbdown:
I'll try here... What you need to run the motor is a wiring harness, the PCM (engine computer) and the engine complete with sensors and fuel system. You do not need the instrument cluster or the BCM (computer below the column?).
thank you very much ..but how i turn of the VATS??? (the economic way)
sorry for all this stupid question ..i need to run the engine to make a buggy i have all the 4x4 system :rock:

Find someone with a tuner package for Generation 3 engines and ask them to turn it off. You can pay somebody to tune a PCM for you and they can turn off all the things you don't need turned on in your application. NelsonPerformance.com can send you a PCM to fill your needs, you just send him your old one in return. Allen Nelson can turn the emissions items off, the VATS, and calibrate the system for a speedometer for whatever size tires you need. He can do that for a very reasonable one time fee. You can re-use your steering column and ignition key, along with the body control module to let the engine start and run. You must have all those parts in order for it to continue to run. The BCM sends the signal to the PCM to start and continue running, otherwise it will only run for a couple seconds and then die. If you get the VATS turned off in the PCM you will not have to use the factory steering column and BCM.
i test the pcm of 1999 chevy truck in a2000 truck and didnīt work
the engine doesnīt start only the full pump and the engine crank
why?????
Don't know for sure, could be that the PCM would not recognise the signal coming from the BCM of the different year model.

:rofl: That's funny as hell Red!
Odds are, VATS is still enabled on the PCM. I had that problem when I first started my project, and the engine would crank over-and-over, but not run. It'd seem as if it'll start, but then die less than a second later. Get VATS turned off, and you should be good, as far as turning the motor over to run it.Quote:

Help us understand what it is you're looking to do with this setup. Will this be a street vehicle or an off-road vehicle?Quote:

If it's off-road, there's a good deal of things that can be disable on the PCM:
1. VATS
2. EGR / A.I.R.
3. Rear o2 sensor delete
4. COT disable
... and more
If it's a street vehicle, then depending on environmental restrictions, some things may still be required. However, as stated in previous posts, I'd start with disabling VATS, and work from there. PM "farmtruc" (Allen - Nelson Performance). He can take care of what ya need done. Shyt, he can even help ya with a lil extra if the price is right for ya. :thumb:
BTW, there's not much room for frugal-ness when it comes to customizing. Best of luck.
i only want to run the engine, but i donīt have the instrumental cluster and the computer below the column (bcm)(auto theft) is posible to run the engine? i have the complete wiring
the pcm control the automatic trans and the front diferential???
