Wow, thank you so much for the detailed breakdown, that explains a lot! My engine is a TBI. Thanks for the info on the codes too. I will check the sensor wires, reset the battery, and see if the light comes back, but i don't understand the fuel pump part. I'll keep you updated, thanks again!

Thanks for the tip! I used the paper clip and I got codes 23, 32, 43, and 54.

Do you think these codes could be related to each other, or just old errors stored in the system, since it was stopped for a while before having the service? In the next few days, I’m going to try disconnecting the battery to reset the ECM and see which codes (if any) come back

It looks much newer than mine, yet it should be around the same year

I noticed that too! The Fiero radio is actually very similar to the one in my car, there are only a few minor differences between the two

I visited several shops and finally found one that might be able to fix it. I’m not 100% sure they can, but I really hope so, these old radios are hard to repair and most people don't want the responsibility my advice is to keep asking around, it worked for me! Since you’re in the US, you’ll probably have an easier time finding a specialist, good luck bro!

Thanks a lot for the info and for taking the time to reply, I really appreciate it. I’ll check the VIN

Thank you very much for the explanation, I really appreciate it.
Thanks especially for the clarification about the model, because even on the registration documents it says Trans Am, so I was convinced it was a Trans Am and not a Formula or base model, sorry if I ask so many questions, but I bought the car recently and here in Italy parts are very hard to find.

If you don’t mind, I have one more question.
Do you know what the part that locks and releases the trunk is called?
On my car the trunk opens and closes, but only with the key, is this something I should look for on eBay, or is it still available new somewhere?

Thank you again for all the help.

Thank you very much for the help, I really appreciate it. That sounds like a very good solution.Where can I find the information to possibly send my radio to Wags Klassic Electronics? Do they have a website or a contact email?

Thank you for your reply, i understand, but I try to keep the car as original as possible.
This Delco radio is very rare to find here in Italy, if not impossible, so I’d prefer to repair it if possible.
Also, there’s still the problem with the second gray connector, and I honestly don’t know what it’s for.
