2006 Cadillac Escalade - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

The red lights represent the actual rear lights of the car's brake and signal indicator lights, also would alert you when bulbs were not functioning properly.

Check temperature rise when engine is running in that 5 minutes.Check the coolant level. Bleed the air out if necessary. Some cars have an overheat cut off switch that may turn on when coolant is too low that none of it touches the tip of this switch. how many psi is the fuel pressure? If it uses MAF instead of MAP, check if the hose from air cleaner to MAF has no leaks.

Heated Seat System Operation The driver and passenger heated seats have 2 heat zone operating modes with 3 heat level modes and will operate only while the engine is running. The heat zones are determined by which of the 2 heated seat buttons are pressed, while the heat level is determined by the number of times they are pressed. Pressing the seat cushion button 1 time will activate the seat back and cushion heater elements in the high mode. Each time the seat cushion button is pressed the seat back and cushion heat level is reduced from high to medium, low, and off. Pressing the heated seat back button 1 time will activate only the seat back heater element in the high mode. Each time the seat back button is pressed the seat back heat level is reduced from high to medium, low, and off. During heated seat operation the heat zone operating mode may be changed without affecting the current heat level mode. The heated seat switches are momentary contact switches and are inputs to the driver and passenger door modules. Battery voltage is supplied to the switch assembly from the door module, and when a heated seat switch is pressed and released a brief switch signal voltage is supplied to the door module. Whenever the door module receives an active heated seat switch input, the next heated seat operating mode is determined by whatever the current mode may be. The seat heater elements are controlled by the driver seat module using inputs from the door modules through Class 2 serial data circuit messages. The driver seat module controls the voltage supply and the ground circuits to the seat heater elements. When a heated seat function is commanded active, the seat module will switch battery voltage to the heater element supply circuits, and ground is provided through low side drive control circuits. During heated seat operation both the seat back and cushion heater elements are supplied battery voltage. The seat module grounds the appropriate control circuits for back only or back and cushion heating modes, and opens or closes the active control circuits as necessary in order to maintain the desired seat temperature. The seat module relies on inputs from thermistors located in the driver and passenger seat backs to control heated seat temperatures. The thermistors are 2 wire sensors supplied with a 5-volt referenced signal circuit and a low reference circuit from the seat module. Resistance through the thermistors varies with temperature causing the heated seat sensor signal circuit voltage levels to decrease as the seat back temperatures rise. The seat modules allow heated seat operation only while the engine is running which is determined by a Class 2 serial data circuit message from the powertrain control module.

has the vehicle been in an accident around the drivers door A pillar? Sounds like there are some wiring issues inside of the harness or connector that goes from the body to the door.

The heater matrix may be blocked or has an airlock. Set the heater controls to hot - fully open - and leave them like that when you drive the car. When the car reaches normal operating temperature any air in the heater matrix should be 'bled out'. Then check your coolant level. If the matrix doesn't have an airlock - it may have a blockage caused by corrosion/limescale. If this is the case, any car parts store should be able to sell you a bottle of something to unblock (if possible) the heater matrix.

What's the problem , won't unlock ? The power door lock system consists of the following components: ?€¢ The driver door module (DDM)

?€¢ The passenger door module (PDM)

?€¢ The body control module (BCM)

?€¢ The driver information center (DIC)

?€¢ The rear door lock switch

?€¢ The door lock relay

?€¢ The door unlock relay

?€¢ The liftgate lock relay--utility vehicles with liftgate only

?€¢ The reversible door lock actuators in each of the doors and liftgate

?€¢ LOCKS 20A fuse (rear lock/unlock relay supply voltage)

?€¢ ECC 10A fuse (liftgate lock relay supply voltage)

The liftgate lock relay supply and coil sides receive a constant voltage through the battery voltage supply circuit and the ECC fuse. The normally closed contact is connected to ground and the control side is connected to the body control module (BCM). A lock function will occur when a door lock switch activation, keyless entry lock transmission, auto door lock function or a liftgate lock function has been received by the BCM. The BCM will then ground the control side of the liftgate lock relay. This energizes the relay and allows voltage to be applied to the liftgate lock actuator lock control circuit. Since the other side of the liftgate lock actuator is connected to the normally closed contacts of the door unlock relay to ground, the liftgate will lock. When an unlock function occurs the BCM will ground the control side of the unlock relay and the rear doors and liftgate will unlock. The BCM also runs diagnostics on the liftgate lock relay control circuit and will set DTC B3825 as current and also send a Class 2 message to the DIC. The DIC will display REPLACE LIFTGATE FUSE to inform the driver that a fault has been detected in the liftgate lock circuit and that the liftgate is not locked. Faults that will set the DTC and cause the DIC to display the message could be any of the following: EEC

You'll have to unlock the doors first, then you can lift the handle on the gate from the outside, or some models have the pushbutton release just under the lift handle.

If it doesn't start, how does engine run? And does security lite never flash?

remove the bearing retainer plate from the end of the housing and use a slide hammer to pull the axle out the bearing and seal adhere to the housing initially but once the is broken the axle will come out easily.

On most cars located close to oil filter

what model is your car?

If you want to repair yourself, I would start by taking the bumper cover off, then slowly warming the dent area (front and back of the cover) with a heat gun (careful as you could easily scorch). Then pressing evenly from the backside outward. Once the dent is popped back, let cool, then inspect for finish damage that may require attention. Else, go see a PDR (Paintless Dent Repair) tech who can affix a pull to the outside and try to draw it out.

top rear side of engine near bell housing

Sounds like the AC condensation drain is plugged.

the location is the right side of the lower dashboard to the left of the blower motor the screws are hold it in are 7/32 or 5.5mm

Check alldata.com for TSB, sounds like a blower resistor malfunction.

You will need a multimeter to start off with. The video talks you through the procedure, ohm value for the injectors is 12 ohm. (using Delphi FJ10062 injector as model; which is designed to fit/replace OEM injectors). 1st thing to note, is the fact that the resistance in the coil is correct does not necessarily mean the injector is good to go, there could be a clog, or a signal problem prior to the injector. Meaning the injector may function properly, but somewhere along the line, a signal fault occurred. This next video talks to the cleaning of the injectors. It is a decent kit for general maintenance, however if you have a significant clog or damaged injector, the results will be minimal and you may need to replace the injector.

Blown fuse,or motor.good luck

on every station? try another pump and see.the decision to stop is on the pump. not your car.

the actual relay is in the "B" Pillar Passenger side, which is between frt passenger door and rear passenger door behind the plastic trim you will have to pull the trim loose or off to get to it
