Cadillac STS Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 I have reason to believe that the stealership i visited a while back deliberately snipped or damaged my ground wires when I was in for a quick check-up...well 4 months later and it caught up with me...dont ask how or why i suspect the "stealership", just take my word for it Anyway where can I get new ones? And how much should I expect to pay? I plan to install myself BTW Car likes to start when it wants to so I’m using the Silverado until I can resolve this problem…I really don’t mind, nothing like V8 & RWD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
