BCM Replacement
Replace the BCM only if diagnostics in this section directs you specifically to do so. Most system problems are traceable to faulty wiring, to connectors, or to components. The BCM itself is very reliable and is not likely the cause of a fault. Do not replace the BCM before performing a complete diagnosis or recurrence of the fault will likely occur. Note: Every input to the BCM is short to ground and short to battery protected. Every output from the BCM is short to ground and short to battery protected. Therefore, the BCM does not automatically need to be replaced when there is a short found in the wiring connected to it. Repair the wiring first, then check the system for any further problem.

BCM Programming
When a BCM is replaced, it must be programmed with the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of the vehicle that it is being installed in. The RadioTheftlock feature uses the VIN to verify that the radio has not been removed and improperly installed in another vehicle.
The programming of the BCM is accomplished by using a scan tool. The vehicles VIN is entered in the scan tool and then transmitted via a Class 2 physical message to the BCM. The BCM stores the VIN in EEPROM. The first communication between the BCM and radio re-arms the Radio Theftlock. To set up a new BCM, select SETUP NEW BCM from the BCM Special Functions menu and follow the instructions on the screen.

How to fix P0335 and P0727 error codes for Cadillac Catera 2000?

P0335 is a code for a faulty crank angle sensor. When this sensor starts going bad, usually the car will not start till it cools down, may cause rough running or no start at all. P0727 is a communication error between the engine control module and the transmission control module. Check for any bad connections between both modules.

2000 Cadillac Catera, I can not get it to run unless I take the boots off the throttle body and hold my hands over the ports on the throttle body what would cause this

check for missing screws in the ports that you are blocking off as by putting the hands over the ports you are cutting off the air leak into the body .

ABS and TC light on. Speedometer and odometer are not working

If the speedo and odometer are not working it could be the speed sensor in the transmission. And the speed sensor could also knock out the ABS and traction control systems.
Have you had the body computer scanned for trouble codes ?
