BodybyFisher Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Hello I would have the battery load tested, when the battery is bad or there is a bad connection LOTS of codes can be set due to low or intermittan power Clean the battery connections, especially the red or positive (+) cable. That positive cable is two wires sandwidged with a lead (Pb) lug between them. That joint gets corroded and prevents the engine from drawing power to start.

Anders Oh, so the starter turns it won't start. Sorry With all of those codes, I still think battery.

Anders Kronlund Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 I have charged battery but i will take it out from the car and test it. Anders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodybyFisher Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Charging the battery is the first step, the second step is to test it. It is possible for the battery to read 'charged' and put out 12 volts but to die/bog down when a load is placed on it, with the available voltage dropping to 8 or 9 volts... Have it load tested or use a KNOWN GOOD battery 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...

winterset Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Hi again, i just talk to a man who had repared my car before and he said that it has been WATER in it. Now i had to check connections on the floor perhaps something wrong with them. Anders check for rust or corrosion BEHIND the fuse panels. Also pull out several fuses, and spray wd-40 in there before you reseat the fuses. Water can do lots of damage to an already delicate electrical system.

Anders Kronlund Posted July 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Hi again , i had clean alot of - ground connection in the electrical system but there still alot of current u 1255 codes and one u 1000. But service theftsysstem is history. What can i do ? Anders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterset Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Did you put a new battery in it? - how are your volts? is your alternator functioning properly? - please let us know the results. Again, your symptoms are similar to a starved electrical system. hmmm. are you saying it was a flood car. in other words it was submerged underwater, and then repaired? - if that is the case, it could be a bad PZM,PCM or similiar componant.

Anders Kronlund Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Hallo, i want to give feedback about the problem with my car. I took it to a garage and in the tech2 instrument they can see it was ground problem. After working 15 hour they find a cable under the gearbox which have a bad connection. Now everything ok with the car no current codes only a lot of history codes. Anders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterset Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Thanks for following up. So it sounds like it is an engine ground -I guess the water affected the ground connection underneath the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anders Kronlund Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Thanks for following up. So it sounds like it is an engine ground -I guess the water affected the ground connection underneath the car? This is not a flod car but the first time problem start was when it raining a lot and ABS stop working and then come more and more problems so your guess is correct. If you have problem with abs rss etc. check batery and ground connections because the computers are not so often brake down. Anders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
