Not 100% on this, but are you using the PCM (computer) from the 96 trans am? I don't know if the harness's will plug into the wrong PCM or not, but just a shot in the dark.

Also, going to have people saying its the opti, good luck.

Yeah I think your onto something with the different computers. 95 is obd1 and 96 is obd2. I'm not sure if thats makes a difference but good luck
