hello, Serg here, I recently bought a 1995 camaro z28 with the T-56 and I hooked up a scan tool just to see what it would read and it said "Output Driver Module Fault" and also said DTC#29. The car runs normal and I would just like to know what a ODM is and what could be wrong with my car.

Any help would be great. Thanks

Click the DTC link in my sig for "real" code defiinitions pertaining to the f-body and not generic ones you see on the scanner. Code 29 is for the AIR pump. Check the fuse.

Thanks, I checked the fuse and it was bad, I replaced it,erased the codes, and scanned it again and it still shows the same thing: Output Driver Module Fault I have no idea what that means. thanks again for helping me out

You don't need to know that that means, because it is not the right definition. Again, look at the code descriptions on my Tech Page. Check the fuse again, maybe it blew again-meaning the AIR pump is probably seized up.

The fuse is still fine, I scanned it with an other scanner, thinking the first one was acting up, It still read Output Driver Module Fault but this time it also said EAS circuit

One more time...read the code number from the scanner and use my list. Quit looking at the generic description that is on the read out of the scanner.
