The thermostat is located on the engine side of the upper radiator hose.
SOURCE: cadillac 2000 el dorado heater blows cold air on
those controlers are vacume controled you either have a hose with a hole in it or the heater control valve is stuck or bad look under the dash by the control and see if it is moving when switched from hot to cold if not their is a line off or a hole if all lines ok then the valve is bad probley 75.00-100.00 bucks for part or so
SOURCE: 1990 el dorado battery drains overnight
check for any draws such as visible ones....is the under hood light on????trunk lite???? brake lites?
They were notoriuos for the trunk or hood light being on... remove the bulbs one at a time and see if that works?
If nothing is obvious an alternator test for draw may be needed, seek pro help or bring car for free to an Auto Zone Parts store they test for free and give you a printout.

DESCRIPTION
The ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) has a dedicated power supply circuit. The voltage (+BM)
is monitored and when it is low (less than 4 V), the ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the
ETCS and cuts off the current to the throttle actuator.
When the voltage becomes unstable, the ETCS itself becomes unstable. For this reason, when the
voltage is low, the current to the throttle actuator is cut. If repairs are made and the system returns to
normal, turn the ignition switch OFF. The ECM then allows the current to flow to the throttle actuator so
that it can be restarted.
HINT:
The ETCS does not use a throttle cable.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the battery supply voltage applied to the throttle actuator.
When the power supply voltage (+BM) drops below 4 V for 0.8 seconds or more, the ECM interprets this
as an open in the power supply circuit (+BM). The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, the DTC is set 5 seconds after the engine is next started.
