If it is coming from the ground NEG post it most likely is going to another power item as its ground...normaly not tied into the operating system..if it is not effecting the operation should not be a problem but if in doubt just loosen the neg cable and strip the wire and connect it to the neg and tighten the cable..good luck...

My friend has a 1996 Cadillac deville it's not cranking changed fuel pump and battery and it's still not cranking starter good what else could it be

Ck the power at the solenoid. You should have 12v off the battery going in... a equal sized ground wire on the other side & a signal wire/key power to trigger the stater to turn it over.

I have a 1996 cadillac deville. I replaced the battery, the alternator, with the built in regulator n wiring grounds to n from the alternator. N also checked the fuses. The information center still says...

First make sure you have the voltage going to the battery with the car running, (new would be 14+ volts). If you do then you have a short in the wire that goes to the light. WHen you have a short, it is grounded out, causing the light to come on. Two things you can do, first, Ignore the light. second THere are two wires to the alternator, one is 12 volts, the other goes to the light, that wire you will have to trace to the short and repair it.

The can not start.the injectors don't work

check the main ground wires for the battery, remove and clean the ground wire and bolt at the engine. I had a customer with one (would stall and not refire). An easy check is hook up a wire to the neg. at battery and touch it on any bare metal on the engine. If you see a very tiny spark the ground is bad.

2001 Cadillac deville will not start or jump. No power to radio, no power at all,

posible bad battery cable or bad ground,check all the wiring,i have had battery cables that battery acid has gotten inside the cable and eaten the copper wire and the cable looks good on the outside, check the simple things first to save unneeded costs.
