98 sts codes

[sts_driver]

Hey I am looking at buying a 98 STS it has 85,000 miles on it, in pretty good shape looks like it was taken care of. Before I do theres two codes flashing on the dash one says ex id 125, and the other ex id 140. I will run the rest of the codes today and see what I find with that. I cant find anywheres what those two codes mean can anyone help.

These are export text codes. When a Cadillac is exported error/warning messages are not always available in the local language, so these export text codes are shown. Can you pull the DTC codes using the procedure here? http://www.caddyinfo.com/readingcodes.html

BATTERY NOT CHARGING - 7

When the PCM detects that the vehicle is not charging the battery. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE - 27

When the DIM detects that the vehicle is in the battery saver mode. The DIM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH - 8

When the PCM detects that the vehicle is over charging the battery, voltage is greater than 15.5 volts. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW - 6

When the PCM detects that the vehicle's battery voltage is less than 10 volts. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

CHANGE BRAKE PADS -- 125

When the EBTCM does not detect a ground condition on the brake wear system circuit. The EBTCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

CHANGE ENGINE OIL -- 82

When the PCM detects that the engine oil should be replaced. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

CHANGE TRANS FLUID -- 47

When the PCM detects that the transaxle fluid should be replaced. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

CHECK BRAKE FLUID -- 37

The IPC supplies ignition voltage to the brake fluid level switch via circuit 333 (PPL). The IPC monitors this circuit at connector C2 terminal B4, if the brake fluid level drops low enough the switch closes and circuit 333 (PPL) is grounded via circuit 151 (BLK/WHT). The IPC detects this ground condition and if the circuit remains grounded for at least one second, the IPC displays this message, sends a class 2 serial data message to the EBTCM, and illuminates the BRAKE indicator.

CHECK COOLANT LEVEL -- 2

The IPC supplies ignition voltage to the coolant level switch via circuit 1478 (LT GRN). The IPC monitors this circuit at connector C2 terminal B3, if the coolant fluid level drops low enough the switch closes and circuit 1478 (LT GRN) is grounded via circuit 150 (BLK). When the IPC detects this ground condition and the circuit remains grounded for at least thirty (30) seconds, the IPC displays this message and sends a class 2 serial data message to the PCM.

CHECK FUEL GAGE -- 50

When the IPC detects that the fuel tank contains less than 15.2 liters (4 gallons). When this message is displayed the IPC sends a class 2 message requesting the radio to activate single chime.

CHECK GAS CAP -- 61

When the PCM detects that a large vapor leak in the fuel system, i.e. a missing or loose gas cap. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

CHECK OIL LEVEL -- 36

When the PCM does not detect a ground condition on circuit 1174 (BRN) for approximately thirty (30) minutes and the ignition switch is in ON with the engine not running. The PCM sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed.

CHECK WASHER FLUID -- 25

The IPC supplies ignition voltage to the windshield washer fluid level switch via circuit 99 (BLK/WHT). The IPC monitors this circuit at connector C2 terminal B5, if the windshield washer fluid level drops low enough the switch closes and circuit 99 (BLK/WHT) is grounded via circuit 1250 (BLK). The IPC detects this ground condition and if the circuit remains grounded for at least fifteen seconds, the IPC displays this message.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR -- 140

The LH Front Door Module (LFDM) supplies ignition voltage to the LH front door jamb switch via circuit 745 (BLK/WHT). The LFDM monitors this circuit at connector C2 terminal B, if the LH front door is ajar/open the switch closes and circuit 745 (BLK/WHT) is grounded via circuit 351 (BLK/WHT). The LFDM detects this ground condition and sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that this message is displayed. If the vehicle speed is greater than 4.8 km/h (3 mph) the IPC displays the message and request the radio via a class 2 message to activate a multiple medium chime.

DRIVER NO. X (1 or 2)

When the RFA module detects the transmitter (driver 1 or driver 2) used to unlock the vehicle. The RFA module sends a class 2 serial data message to the IPC requesting that the appropriate message is displayed.

The DIC messages DRIVER NO 1 or DRIVER NO 2 can be changed to display a name or phrase. To change use the following procedure.
