Cadillac sts dead battery cant open car with
Don't you still have a door key?Otherwise jack up the car and remove the engine under body cover.Between the radiator support and the engine are some hard lines.Remove the two brackets holding them,this will allow you room to get to the starter.Hook the red end of a jumper cable to the red battery cable that's connected to the starter.Black to a suitable ground and charge the battery.A battery charger is easier to use,use that if you have one.If jumping off a car make sure the cables are hooked to the dead car first and grounded to the engine not the battery of the car doing the charging.Sure hope this helps!
Tuned up and still has miss after it warms up
Its good you took care of the basics
but you need to focus on the sensors that provide feed back once in closed loop
O2 sensors
Temp sensors
Knock sensor
that being said though...any of your sensors could be the cause because temperature can affect the sensors
then there is the possibility that you are dealing with a base engine problem too which may be affected by engine oil
LONG STORY SHORT...we need to get a scanner installed so that we can measure fuel trims and O2 readings
when you did the "tune-up" did you replace the fuel filter too?
Brighten headlamp lense
Polishing the lenses is a temporary fix and doesnt last long, and then its worse than it was to begin with. You can try with some plastic polish and get them the best you can or replace the headlights, There are several companies on the net that you can purchase lights from, just google Cadillac Headlights and shop around. .Make sure they are dim because of the lens and not an electrical problem.
Service air bag light on. Limits the car to 90 mph
HI, First off, it's hard to say what is causing the rattling under your car (for anyone, even a tech driving your car), so the best way to find out is to have it put on a lift and checked. Many service centers that sell shocks adn struts will take a look for you, mostly because it's a potential job for them. Any shop that would charge you to do this is not the place you should be taking it to. Second, in the STS, while there are airbag sensor problems reported occasionally, the sensors are usually the ones behind the front bumper. Is it possible that the person who told you this may be talking about the "shock" (hydrolic piston) that the front bumper is attached to? The sensors are right there, and maybe they mean that a bad piston can create a problem with the airbag sensor. That sounds accurate. As far as while you're driving, the sheer forward air pressure forced against the front bumper may be setting off the faulty sensor warning. It's speculation at this point, but it just may be the problem. You can take care of these individual things in a measured way, and avoid paying for unnecessary repairs.
Service air bag light on. Limits the car to 90 mph!!!
Your air bags are for when you crash, unless youre driving a custom lowrider. An air suspension system problem doesn't have a light, just a fault code in the computer system and will dispaly as a digital message. You'll need to take it to a shop with the proper equipment for diagnosing air bags in ordeer to have the light turned off.
The shaking is likely your half shafts and can usually be identified simply by examining the dust boots. If they're cracked or broken dirt will get inside and the bearings being quite sensitive and under a lot of 'pressure' will grind themselves into oblivion with small amounts of debris.
2007. What caused transmission to stop shifting?
Hello. It seems either the torque converter and/or transmission pump is at fault. Either one will cause the transmission to become inoperable. It seems the 'transmission pump' is more at fault than the torque converter. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

1997 cadillic sts trunk lid will not latch to close
Do you mean the pulldown is not working, or the trunk lid latch is not connecting to the pulldown assembly when you try to close the trunk?
This latter case typically happens when someone slams the trunk lid down several times not realizing there is a pulldown system and thinking slamming it will make it close (this often breaks something). Check the latch on the trunk lid - if it's in the closed position, use the key to try to move it to the open position and try gently closing the lid again.
If not, there is also a switch on the pulldown assembly that starts the pulldown motor when it is depressed by the closing trunk lid - you can also check this to make sure it's working. Otherwise, either the latch or the pulldown assembly has been bent/broken.
