Hey MT, I concede after reading your info on the Impala.(Maybe not a fix for all models and systems.) They don't have a bare bones ride like mine.(2002 Alero-no key fob or Content Theft Deterrent CTD system.) I am still very interested in hearing back from kees45 on his modification results. (To see if he is having any adverse effects.) I am not privy to most TSBs that you might be able to access. I find whatever I can by Googling. I just happened to put in the right keywords to find that GM Upfitter bulletin. This is what I could find as the source:
Technical Bulletins
The Technical Bulletin Process informs manufacturers of any product changes or issues that may affect their designs. The need for a bulletin may come from:
a. A GM Vehicle Engineering source such as a Mock-up review, where a product change requires an upfitter design or manufacturing modification;
b. One or more upfitters who have expressed repetitive concerns or experienced a frequent
vehicle difficulty.
The investigation process for a bulletin is similar to a Hotline request in that an Upfitter Integration Vehicle Engineer is assigned the responsibility of researching the situation; however, a question or concern only becomes a bulletin when it is judged to affect all upfitters or an entire vehicle platform and any resolution needs to be communicated to every concerned party. Engineering drawings that illustrate the issues and highlight corrective action measures or possible redesigns are gathered, the Bulletin goes through a review and approval process by all affected areas within GM Vehicle Engineering, and is then published and distributed to the entire upfitter community.
So, I guess that bulletin came from GM Vehicle Engineering.(Dated 4/22/99) The upfitter community appears to deal mostly with GM Fleet Trucks and Vans.
Anyhow, Thanks for your continued input!
