i would start by checking the connection at the coolant temp sender, if wiring is good then try replacing the sender.

First of all,you will need the Northstar waterpump removal tool, You can get this from most reputable auto part stores.




You need to remove the air filter housing and ducting to gain easy access to the pump.

Remove the shield covering the pulley and belt. The belt is easily removed by levering the tensioner pulley.

The water pump is located at the lower radiator hose manifold where you will also find the thermostat.Remove the manifold cover and you will see the water pump.

Insert the removal tool over the pump making sure it is locked in position.You will need to use a breaker bar on the removal tool and turn the tool CLOCKWISE to release the pump (1/4 turn), or if you imagine the breaker bar being vertical, push towards the windscreen of your car,it takes quite a bit of force to unseat the pump hence the use of a breaker bar.

Installing the new pump does not require as much torque as removing the old one.
Tighten the new pump to 73 ft.lbs. making sure it is seated properly before tightening.

Don't forget to clean out the water pump housing prior to installing the new pump and don't forget to include a new water pump gasket and housing cover gasket.

It is also a good idea to install a new thermostat while you're at it.

I suggest check in your 1995-Cadillac-Eldorado-Owners-Manual

Hi,
Just a suggestion. Take the positive battery cable off for 5 minuets.
This will reset the Caddys computer to operate the AC.
Worth a try.

I suggest check the LH Maxi Fuses (Seats/Horn), also can find it in your 1995 Cadillac Eldorado - Owners Manual (page 325).

The fuse block is located in the glove box behind an access panel on Eldorado and Seville. There are 2 fuse blocks on 1992-98 Eldorado and Seville, one located in the left-hand side of the engine compartment, on the wheelwell and the other is located on the side of the trunk. To determine if a fuse is blown, remove it from the fuse block and examine the fuse element for a break. If the element is broken, replace the fuse with one of equal current rating.

You will need to test for power on 2 terminals, ground when the horn pad is pushed and if you jumper power to the horn wire the horn should play. What doesn't work will determine what needs to be fixed. There are bulletins that deal with the air bag in the steering wheel as being a problem so if you don't get a ground when the horn pad is pushed then I would suggest taking it to the shop and have someone repair that part of it because serious injury can result if propper steps aren't taken to disable the SIR system before disassembly. Also some special tools might be needed depending upon how deep into the column you need to go.

As far as I know the 1995 Cadillac does not have a timing belt but instead has a timing chain.

You have a trouble code in the ABS. You need to have it scanned for codes or you can scan it yourself with the onboard diagnostics. You likely have a bad wheel speed sensor.

These cars are natural gas guzzlers. I recommend making sure the coolant/ water mixture is according to spec's as well as the thermostat. These two items control the engine temperature and this is what the ECU uses to increase fuel trim if engine is cold
or decrease fuel trim if engine is warm.
Also keep Mass Air Flow Sensor clean (it has an air temperature sensor in it)
Timely oil and air filter changes will also help .
Make sure tires are in good condition and properly inflated.
A lot of people complain about the drag while driving on highway with windows open.

check wires at starter ensure they re clean n tight

The engine will have to be disconnected from the engine mounts to remove. It is another one of GM feats to have the customer pay up the nose for repairs as you can see. If you can do it your self the more power to you. A good rated engine hoist will be needed to perform this task

the coil is the device the spark plug wires are attached to. what seems to be your concern?

bad water pump. thermastate not opening. temp sender not functioning properly. or a cracked cylinder head

a bad the thermostate could be not opening at all thus overheating the engine ,it should be replace with a new thermostate.click on the blue hand if I was helpful thanks.

ENGINE SIDE OF RADISTOR SIDE TANK, THINK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, U HAVE TO GET UNDER THE CAR TO SEE IT, IS A BLACK PLASTIC VALVE

It may not be the battery, however, if the battery went bad, you must reset the system after replacing battery. Read the owner's manual for instructions on resetting or go to your local GM dealer.

can be the cluster unit or ignition module that is at fault. clusters are exchanged units at any cadillac dealer. the ignition module sends the signal for the reading on the tach gauge

Ok el termostato comienza a abrir entre 89-93 grados centrigados y abre completamente a los 103 grados y si te llega a 110 grados puede ser que el termostato se queda pegado y abre muy tarde por eso posiblemente llegue a 110 grados.Cambia el termostato ..gracias y espero tu opinion......

Sounds like you have the Northstar engine yes?...if so...you won't need to dismantle anything other than the water pump belt cover. You can then put the new belt on by levering the small belt tensioner.
Pulley's do not need to be removed, simply position the belt around the three pulley's.

depends on if u have a loose ground or not can go down to u local parts store and have it tested on the vehicle rank me if this helps god luck man
