Mine might be salvagable. It got some water in it, seeped in from water pump on the way out. It might work once it is dry. I dunno if you are interested or not. PM me....will sell for cheap.

Will you sell the wiring harness for that vented opti?

I know what kills optis, trust me, this is number 4 on the car. I have heard that they sometimes work well after they dry out. Thought I would give it a shot.

Man that sux 4 opti failures. How long has this opti been sitting with moisture in it?. I have it down to a 4 hour job to swap out a opti, that includes me tearing down the unit coming off the car to the optical unit for inspection

.
I guess I could try a wet one dried out and chance if it would work. If it didn't work after all then that's 8 hours of work...suxs being me, I hate antifrezze

Ps to board:
Note to self< "never have a positive battery cable rub thru the insulation and ground it self out intermediately. Cause's opti failures when it spikes it self to death"
