They are sometimes located in the glove box on the left side or in a console.

yes and no disconnect the battery both sides, now without touching the battery touch black to red wires, this resets any codes. if the light comes back on you will need a pcm scan to get any error codes from it.

SOURCE: acura rsx trunk latch stuck & won't open

I"m having trouble with locking and unlocking my hatch using my remote. I have flipped the white switch in the trunk and it acts as a child safety lock if flipped one direction. However I am not able to open the trunk this way. It acts as a permanent lock. So I figure the switch must be flipped the other direction and need to replace my actuator. Is this hard to do. It looks to me like it two switches holding a bracket to hold the actuator itself after plugging in the actuator from both sides. Is it really this simple?? Is there more to it???

Why wont my radio shut off on my 97 eldorado

In Cadillacs ( I have an Eldorado ) the radio and power to things like your windows and power trunk release, will stay on for up to 15 minutes after the engine is shut off and the keys are removed. However once you open your car door it should it should break the connection and shut the power off to your radio and windows, If it is not cutting off the power i would look for a connector that should be attached to the pin that controls your interior lights in the door frame. Probably a good cleaning or replacement of that switch should fix your problem. If that does not cure your problem then take it in to an auto electric shop to have them trace the wires to find out where a cuircut has been stuck (fused) in the on position.

2002 eldorado ESC- gas gauges stays on full

Not a fuse.There is no fuse for the level sensor.These are known for fuel level sensors being bad.Sometimes they will leave a code and sometimes not.You can check codes and see if you have a fuel level sensor code.The other thing you can do is check the connections and make sure they are clean and on securely.If you find that the level sensor is bad.Then it is easier to replace if the fuel in the tank is as low as possible for easier removal of the fuel tank.Hope this helps.Good luck.

Trunk "popper" quit working, but "pull down" still works

can you still open it through the key? does the pull down motor not work at all? if the pull down still works it sounds like the popper has just gone weak/bad . they need to be replaced after so long. seeing as you should have a keyfob and a button in the car. im assuming that means its the solenoid switch for the trunk release which is a 30 dollar part.
