In 1965 General Motors devised a plan to track and provide better service to cars that were under warranty. Born was the GM Protect-O-Plate. Looking like a metal credit card, it provides clues to most of the major equipment installed on the car. From engine to carburetor, transmission to axle, from exterior colors to options. Today the Protect-O-Plate ranks as one of the best all-time documentation pieces for your car. The trouble is all this data is in code.

What does code 133311 mean? It is simple to understand once the codes are broken down. And, with this handy little guide you will be able to decode your Protect-O-Plate line by line, and you will know what all those codes mean.
