Turn signal "TAB" contacts broke, resulting in no turn signals.
Driver's side seat belt will not retract into the ceiling.
Just minor repairs otherwise.
This car thinks it's a European sports car, and demands the treatment!! "Give me a tune-up once a year or else!!" On the flip side, it performs like one of those exotics as well. It corners like a sports car should! The ability for rapid acceleration is something that you have to experience at least once a week.
The car always gets noticed by everyone, most with a gratifying envy that only fellow Camaro owners will understand.
I also had turn signal trouble and paid $150 for an Illinois outfit to repair plus local garage charges for removal and installation. Unfortunately now we find that when I press the headlight switch the dashboard lights go out. Am desperately looking for help on the problem. Please advise ASAP.
I also have a problem with the drivers seat belt not retracting. My other problem is I have an 84 berlinetta limited edition. This means I have digital dash. Sometimes it works sometimes not. I cannot figure out the problem.
Lissa.
I have had the same issues as aforementioned, but I love my car. My model is an '84 Berlinetta SE. The car needs a few pumps to turn over, and then runs like a charm. I had the carb stick and it was a scary ride off the freeway last month, but supposedly that was due to a clogged fuel filter. I suppose the car is worth the $400.00 bucks I paid for it (especially since it has just over 100K original miles). It is a great car with mega power and eats gas like an SUV.
I too have a 1984 Berlinetta and have had digital dash problems. My car had a crack in the windshield resulting in water damage to my digital dash. Any moisture will give you problems in your dash. Also try cleaning your accessible contacts.

I too, have had my fair share of problems with my '85 Berlinetta. Don't get me wrong, I love my car, but I bought it as a project car, and haven't had the time or money to put into it. Here are some things that I have done to it.
* Replaced the 2.8 multi-port Fuel injected motor
* New exhaust
* New brake booster
Now it needs a new flywheel, How did I break the flywheel?
The wiring in my car is all messed up now because someone broke into my car and wrapped the horn wire around the steering column, and now I have lost power in my
Radio
Blinkers
Digital speedometer
Windshield wipers
Dome lights Please help me find info. -Andrew.
I hope to pass the grammar test, there has been problems with the light control module. This module is located on the same bracket as the E.C.M. The L.C.M. controls: headlights, turn signals and hazards, as well as dome. Finding the solution is a problem. I have located several L.C.M.s', which is a decision, I could purchase the same problem. I would like the replacement for this product. The problem with this module is, the temperature ambient has malfunctioned, to which the module is too cold or too hot and allows a short-circuit result. This is explained bY All Data, which is consistent to my experience.
OK I have a 1985 Chevrolet Berlinetta Camaro the radio is on a swivel and the digital dash went out I need to know where I can get a replacement I am 17 years old I have been building this car since I was 10 yrs old if I could get some advise from someone it would be well apreciated.
Thank you For Your Time

I too have a 85 Berlinetta, and am crazy about the car. But I have had a problem with the digital dash. I'm wondering if I could change over to an analog dash. I'm wondering what all I would have to do. any help would greatly be taken to heart. Thank You Camaro Friends! ARDESE.
Hey I just got a 1984 camaro berlineetta nice as hell run' s like a top.
A friend of mine just bought an '84 Berlinetta Camaro, and we are having a hard time getting it started. It is a 2.8L v6; I was wondering if a 600 CFM Edelbrock carburetor would dump too much gas into the intake? All advise is welcome,
Blake Grimes.
In regards to other people with wiring problems, I too have a berlinetta. the headlight issue could be a crack on the board inside the control. not hard to check; it pretty much pulls apart.
The digital dash is a common problem, so common it can be near impossible to get a working one. once again, best is to check the solders for cracks. when I pulled mine apart I was amazed how beat up they got over the years.
Hi people, I just got my first car; it's a 1985 T top Camaro Berlinetta. I was just wondering if anyone has any advice for me? Like what I should watch out for or replace?
I am preparing to sell a 1985 Camaro Berlinetta that was given to me by the original owner. I do not know what they are selling for, any advice?
If you somehow managed to put a 600 cfm carb on a 2.8l fuel injected motor, the engine will not draw nearly enough air in for the carb to work. It might start briefly but I see no way that it would run.
Yeah that carb would be wayyyyyy too big.
