fell what does that mean, what is it.? why not tell what is wrong first. of the vast parts of any car name a feature that fails first so we can be on the same page. does fell = fuel? my wild wild guess? there is no fuel buttons at all. the fuse yes, , the key switch yes, the whole EFI fueling system complex. get the car serviced is the answer, lacking symptoms.

That is normal for that year models, I think. Earlier cruise control just maintains the engine RPM in relation to speed. It does not use auto braking to reduce downhill speeds. Best way is to get it scanned with diagnostic scanner that can reset or check error codes for cruise control.

A generally good idea here is to go back to basics. You have put fresh fuel in so that's not the issue. Are you cranking using jumper cables, a boost pack or from the actual battery on the car? A battery stood that long with no use can become weak and cause start issues. Have you checked the battery in the actual key fob? If there is a built in immobiliser system in the car it might not be reading the key/fob so it's not turning the immobiliser off. Just cranking suggests there isn't a spark. Crank the engine for 2 to 3 seconds and turn the car OFF. Remove ONE plug lead and then that spark plug. Sniff the spark plug to see if it smells of gasoline. This shows the injectors are supplying fuel. With the spark plug still out of the engine refit it to the Spark plug lead and with a pair of Insulated grips/pliers hold the sparking end against the engine block. Get a helper to crank the engine for 2 to 3 seconds while you look closely at the firing end of the spark plug. You should be getting a regular, clean, blue spark. If these all seen to be OK you might need to get it plugged into an OBD2 scanner to check for DTC's (Diagnostic Trouble Codes). If you have to pay for this ask at 4 or 5 different places are prices can be VERY different. If you get any DTC's comment below with them and I'll try to explain them.

You will need to reset the security system after a battery disconnect.

There isn't much available on how to do that as they are not part of normal operation. My guess is that underneath you will find bolts that you will need a socket set to remove. https://www.google.com/search?q=2011+Cadillac+SRX%2C+remove+folding+third+row+rear+seats ..

In my vehicle, when I go from Park to Drive, my doors lock. I presume yours do too. It does sound like a communications issue. The electronics on these are very complex. you need an auto-electrician with a pro-grade bi-directional scan tool computer to check comms between modules and sensors. We have a car electronics wizard here named @Jeff Armer, so hopefully he will see this.

engine losing power sign ??? .You mean ENGINE POWER REDUCED ? This has to do with electronic throttle control -Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System Description The throttle actuator control (TAC) system is used to improve emissions, fuel economy, and driveability. The TAC system eliminates the mechanical link between the accelerator pedal and the throttle plate. The TAC system eliminates the need for a cruise control module and idle air control motor. The following is a list of TAC system components: • The accelerator pedal assembly includes the following components: - The accelerator pedal - The accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 1 - The APP sensor 2 • The throttle body assembly includes the following components: - The throttle position (TP) sensor 1 - The TP sensor 2 - The throttle actuator motor - The throttle plate • The engine control module (ECM) TAC System Default Actions/Reduce Power Modes There are 2 reduce power modes that the engine control module (ECM) can default to if an error is detected in the throttle actuator control (TAC) system. If an accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 1 or APP sensor 2 circuit fault, throttle position (TP) sensor 2 circuit fault, or if a TP sensor 1 circuit fault is detected with some APP angle, the ECM goes into one of the 2 reduce power modes. In this mode, the engine torque is limited so that the vehicle cannot reach speeds of more than 100 km/h (60 mph). The ECM remains in this reduce power mode during the entire ignition cycle even if the fault is corrected. If there is a condition with the throttle actuator control circuits, throttle actuator command vs actual position fault, return spring check fault, or a TP sensor 1 circuit fault, the ECM goes into the other reduce engine power mode. In this mode, the engine speed is limited to 2,500 RPM and the 3-6 fuel injectors are randomly turned OFF. At this time the Reduced Power indicator is commanded ON. The ECM remains in the reduce power mode during the entire ignition cycle even if the fault is corrected. Observe, if a TP sensor 1 or throttle actuator control circuit fault is present at the time the vehicle is at idle, with no accelerator pedal angle, the engine may stall. © 2022 General Motors Corporation.

Loose gas cap will cause the light to kick on as well.

Suspension issues. The air foil is causing your vehicle to change position putting pressure on the steering/suspension and it's not reacting properly. I would spend a little money on a suspension inspection to include the steering column and components. This could be caused by wear on the suspension parts or a failed ride control system. (shock absorbers.)

check fuses and relays first then check for freon

I would purchase the factory to standard connector adapter and it is then plug and go.

You don't have to remove the oil. You can simply charge the system with R134 as long as it has no R12 in it. In some cases the accumulator/drier and/or the orifice tube will need to be changed to improve the performance of the system.

look for your bad fuse and replace with a new one page 5-93 starts your fuse info in your owners manual https://www.carmanual.org/cadillac-owners-manuals/2004-cadillac-cts-owners-manual-1742/

Try cleaning or replacing the MAF sensor on the air intake system.

only need to post once --and still dont have one

1. Close all the vehicle doors.
2. Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder.
3. Press and hold the door unlock switch.
4. While holding the door lock switch in the unlock position, cycle the ignition ON, OFF, ON, OFF.
5. Release the door unlock switch.

Classic symptoms. Clean throttle body and MAF. Check for diagnostic codes. https://www.google.com/search?q=2005+Cadillac+CTS%2C+clean+throttle+body+and+MAF ..
