Paul_tunney@hotmail.com Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 well right in the middle of a 1000 mile road trip the sts just quit would crank but not start. no codes at all. so about 7 hrs later i picked the car up with a trailer and still no strat. i got the car trailered to a mechanic and the car started and drove off the trailer. runs fine and he cant find anything wrong with it, so i'm going to pick it up . any ideas to help me solve this problem? i was thinking fuel pump untill it restarted. all fuses are good. thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BodybyFisher Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 On a 96 crank sensors should set a code, but if I recall, not always I would put a fuel pressure gage on it to see what you get when you turn the key on, yes it could be a dead spot on the pump motor or a burned relay Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything is possible, but it was the 2000-2003 that was known for the CKP problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
