1st Gen S10 - DRAC Hot-Swap Mod

Well, I changed my tires to a smaller tire, then I had to change them back because we sold the car I stole them off hahaa!

In the meantime, while I was running the smaller tires, I had to change my DRAC settings to get the right speed to show up on my speedometer.

First I removed the DRAC module (located piggy-backing the computer on the passenger side behind the dash.) As you can see, I had soldered and resoldered trying to get the right combination.

What I eneded up doing was getting an old computer modem, taking the pins off it, and soldering them into the holes. I used the same black jumpers off the modem to jump the pins on the DRAC module.

Another shot of my work. Its not perfectly lined up, I know, but it works great!

Now you dont have to solder, and resolder pins. just use computer jumpers!
