2003 Cadillac Deville Base Model. Service Anti Theft goes on and off. Sometimes the engine won't turn over but everything else comes on.

Question edited for clarity and add maker. Question moved from Misc to model Category. Unfortunately this is not an error you can guess. It can only be diagnosed electronically. You have a computer network issue or a problem with the module that deals with anti-theft. A mobile electrician costs a fraction of what the dealership charges (but you don't get free coffee).. https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me ..

2003 Cadillac Deville left rear door open all the way radio works, front windows work, but as soon as I close the left rear door, radio goes blank and windows don’t work. Also have to boost it every morning

Open the door all the way and look for the wiring harness going into the door, if you split that wire loom open you will see a bunch of broken wires match them by color code then splice them back together. It's a tight place to work so take your time. I hope this helps. Take Care.

I have a 2003 cadillac deville, the check engine

Cost and complexity depends on exactly what trouble codes you found. Post the codes and we can help. Saying that it's the pollution control system is way too broad. There are many components in the system

2003 DeVille DHS rear suspension:

A GM dealer can tell you if you give him the VIN number, but the simplest way is to check one of the rear struts for an electrical connection (will also have a leveling air line connection). If there is one, you have a road sensing suspension (RSS) with rear leveling capability - if not, just air shocks. If you have RSS, these struts are very expensive and notoriously unreliable, and you may want to replace them with air shocks. However, if you do this you will have to trick the RSS into thinking they are still there by terminating each electrical connector with a resistor (see the Cadillac Forums website).

2003 deville no speedometer sticks in gear?

Easy to buy, difficult to replace as it is in a very awkward place on the top of the end of the transmission near the right drive axle location. Requires a hoist and the need to disconnect a few things to get at it.

Three intermittent warning lights

I would think a sensor is going bad , but ,without testing that is just a guess , just like the dealer tech , assuming it's a module or a fuse ! With the light's on checking for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes would be a real good first step . The dealer tech should have hooked up the Tech 2 scan tool an checked codes an look at sensor data parameters ....

Service engine light is flashing and a rough idle

With the service engine light flashing it means there is a catayltic converter damaging misfire happening . With you not knowing about car's it may be hard for you to fix . Have you ever changed spark plugs or plug wires ? Are there any parts stores near you ? If thier is have them check codes . It will tell you which cylinder is misfiring , and they can give you advice on what to do , sell you parts you need . Also there are videos on youtube showing how to test for what mite be causing the misfire . I wouldn't drive it too much , you don't want to mess up the catayltic converter because they are not cheap .

2003 DeVille. Cranks and seems to idle normally. When trying to drive it will not accelerate and seems to choke back. Someone has suggested the catalytic converter needs replacement.

Before you replace your catalytic converter, you can disconnect it and take if for a drive. If the problem goes away, you know you may have a bad component. If the problem is still present, might have other problems.

My 2003 Cadillac DeVille it will crank but wont stay running what could be the problem and it shakes a little bit

It may be the throttle position sensor (TPS). It is located where the intake air (from air filter) attaches to the intake manifold. The TPS connector should have 3 wires. The TPS controls the air/fuel mixture.
