Default 99-02 pcm

Will a 99-02 LS1 F-Body pcm work with a 93 gauge cluster? I'm planing a engine swap on my 93 and tring to get as much info as possible. Car will be 93 Camaro Z28 with LS1 and auto trans.

In 93 most gauge clusters were not run by the PCM/ECM, you would still need to install your stock sending unit to get it to work

Ok well the problem is the 99-02 pcm uses 1 wire to send signal to the gauge cluster. The 93 has analog gauges not dig.

Right, that is why the 93 cluster can be made to work, you just have to use the sensors for the 93 cluster in addition to the sensors required for the 99-02 PCM.

To the op..here is what you do..

In the LS1 Harness the Wire for the Speedo, Tach, and Oil Pressure is there, you just have to find them. To get the one for the Volt Gauge just splice into the Red Alternator Wire that goes from the Alternator to the PCM and run that splice to the Gauges.
For the Water Temp Gauge get ahold of a 3-wire Connector like the one that goes to the TPS. Go to the Dealership and buy part #12551708, that is the 1998 LS1 Temp Sensor. Wire the 2 bottom ones in where the original 2 Sensor wires were in the LS1 Harness, and the 3rd top wire goes to the Gauges(once you see it you will know what I mean).

For the Fuel Gauge, leave the Fuel System ALONE..don't **** with any of that going to the gauges..it's fine the way it is. Many people have a mis-conception on this and don't understand how it's wired on the car.
