ROCKnROLL Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 the garage door opener in my 97 seville isn't working. i thought i would ask before i start taking it apart. it's three buttons and an amber LED. the valet button seems to be working since i know it is tied in with the GDO. any help would be appreciated. thanks rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Nunnally Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Did it work before, or have you never programmed it for your door? Bruce 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing Follow me on: Twitter Instagram Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCKnROLL Posted March 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 i programmed it about 3 years ago. then today it stops working. no lights, no nothing. it's as if it has no power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHE Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Are you sure that the VALET button in the glove box did not inadvertently get switched on? That would explain the lack of power to the opener. Kevin '93 Fleetwood Brougham '05 Deville '04 Deville 2013 Silverado Z71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCKnROLL Posted March 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 I've checked the valet button several times. It's working and in the right position. I guess I'll have to pop it out and check to see if there is power in the GDO housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green99std Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 This happens to mine occasionally...the inadvertant relay or something per a previous post I have not worked on yet. But the overhead lights adjacent to the homelink transmitter don't come on either. I read a previous post and shook the casing surronding the relay and it all came up again. Maybe next weekend...this weekend's priority was the brakes. green99std Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCKnROLL Posted March 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Thanks for the reply green99std. I'm going to the garage now and check some things out. I did the brakes on my 97 seville a couple of weekends ago. If I can help you in any way give me a holler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCKnROLL Posted March 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 I found the problem! When I removed the trim I found the blue/white striped wire broken at the connector. The orange wire was fine. I've got to go repair it, just wanted to let you guys know. Thanks for the help. Rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
