Hey,

I did an install several months ago in a '00 Cavalier, and I don't recall anything being odd, but, I have heard that the computer needs to see certain amount of output on wires or else it will register an error code.

check more info here: http://www.termpro.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000836.html

I heard the computer needs to be "reset" if it sees a non normal load. I would call your local car dealer for more information, and talk to someone in service. This was info passed on to me by the owner of a 2000 GM car.

That is only the Volkswagon Jetta that has pin 13 on the headunit disconnected with a aftermarket headunit

I was wrong, the ignition or switched wire on the stereo harness is not a true 12v and you can hook up everything off of the factory harness except switched power. you have to get switched from the ignition harness on key barrel. If you hook up the switched that is on the factory stereo harness you get an error with the oil sending unit, that has to be reset or fixed be GM.
