Maybe it'* tied into the rear O2 sensor to detect when the Cat needs to be replaced. :?

Sorry, Pat. It just doesn't have the same effect as Rear Steer.

Did the 97'* not have an Oil Level Sensor, depending on trim level? The 97 SSE'* & SSEi'* have a Driver Information Center (DIC), no? Just asking, not sure.

Let'* clear this up a bit. GM did not put a bulb in this area. Pat...that was a 93-95 cluster wasn't it? I looked on my 97 and it wasn't there...I had plans for it.
