Pins & terminals get strippied of their metal coating when you get water/coolant down there, the current passing through basically de-plates the connectors.

Re: opti harness what fails?

Where can I get a opti harness for a 94' Z28 with the stock opti? I noticed Casper's site only lists 96 and up.

the casper one is for the vented optis, 95-97 F-body, 94-96 B-body, 94-96 Y-body

only place I know of for the non-vented is the dealers, try Jason Cromer or Dal Slabaugh
