Unlock the door with the key

Sounds like a bad battery. Auto parts stores have testers to see if the battery is ok or not

try wiggling the wheel if in a jam but get a new key ordered through the dealer, getting one cut using THAT key won't help too much.

Hi!!

It holds 7.5 quarts. If you need a copy of your owners manual give me an e-mail address to send it to.

Don't forget to rate this answer.

you should have to go thru under the hood to the backside of the lamp assembly. There should be either a hard plastic cap or a plastic dust cover that has the wires going thru it to the lights. If it is the hard cover (looks like a jar cap) turn it 1/4 turn counterclockwise and pull it out of the way. Take the bulb/socket out. Unclip the old one- Put the new one in. (DO NOT TOUCH THE GALSS PART OF NEW BULB). Then re-assemble

Yes. Cadillacs generally do hold 7 or more quarts.

disconect negative ground on battery, will reset computers...disc for about 2 min...and bingo,,youre good to go

Water pumps is a good place to look, but a presure check would be more revealing.

1st look for bad connection at the bulb area

A fuel pump is a kind of motor and any motor is subject to having shorted windings. If the shorts weren't catastrophic, the pump could still be functional but drawing much higher currents than when built. I have an ugly feeling your fuel pump in located inside your gas tank which would require removing the tank to replace it.
I'm pretty sure that the real factory service manual would have a test (resistance measurement) that would quickly find whether the pump is healthy, whereas the aftermarket books from Haynes or Chilton may not.

Have you changed the bulb on that side of the car? If a bulb is broken or burnt out it will not light up.

sealed beam unit??

sealed beam unit ,,,,dig deep in the pocket

The plugs are located by engine head. You can use a ratchet wrench and sockets to remove them. Make sure to mark the plug wires so the order doesn't get mixed up.
The check engine light comes on when there is a bad sensor, or bad circuit.
Many part stores will run an engine diagnostic code scan for free which will pinpoint exact problem that is setting of the check engine light
The light can only be shut off by the diagnostic scanner!!

Any shop should be able to get that price for you. Service the trans and filter while its apart. Est $200.00

The break roters either need to be turned (shaved down to smooth) or replaced.. When the roters get warn - the slightly worp thus causing shake or shimmy when breaking..

ok, In this New of a vehicle there are no screws holding the headlight in if you just need to replace a headlight because it is burned out. Look at the back of the light where the wires attach and you should see the wires going into what appears to be a coupling. Get a hold of that and turn. After it unlocks you can remove and replace the bulb. If you are replacing the Headlight assembly because it was damaged there are typically 2 long scews on the top front that appear to be adjsutment screws and 2 smaller ones in each side, again on top. Good Luck

ur battery should be at 12.5 volts and the alternator should carge at 14.5 volts
