2005 Cadillac CTS 3.6 liter Vin 7. How to test an output speed sensor to see if it's working?

You find a local auto electrician, he connects his pro grade scan tool computer and you take him for a ride. The data from all the sensors and modules will tell him what the problem is and what needs replacing.

I have a 2008 Cadillac Escalade that I have replaced the fuel pump on twice and it is still not running right. When it's cold, its still acts like it's starving for gas. Anyone else had this issue?

A scan tool with live data would confirm, but it could be your coolant temperature sensor causing the engine to not go into phase lock loop.

05 Cadillac STS 4.6 rear wheel drive not starting after getting a new battery

ok take a deep breath. 2005 CADDY 4.6l first off I bet the alternator is dead. and with that all batteries go dead. too. (as they must) driving with the CHARGE lamp glowing does that. the scan tool fails because of 4 reasons,
  1. blow fuses, to the scanner port pin 16
  2. or fuse to PCM blown or BCM or other computers no board.
  3. the scan too is too old. 2008 and newer tools do CAN-BUS or fails communications lack those pins working. DLC.
  4. the battery is dead, or below 10vdc. all brains in the car GO OFFLINE< (for the lack of proper voltage power)
THIS CADDY USE GMLAN , That is Can_bus (plus) so use a thing called a battery charger, no shop can fix cars lacking that.? keep the battery charged, then scan every service manual on earth 1996 to now USA states that. battery charged, fuses all good . try to crank it in PARK and Neutral. both.<<< starter dead do that. P0340 ???? there lots of other CMP codes errors. DTCs P0010, P0011, P0013, P0014, P0020, P0021, P0023, P0024, P0341, P0342, P0343, P0346, P0347, P0348, P0366, P0367, P0368, P0391, P0392, P0393, P2088, P2089, P2090, P2091, P2092, P2093, P2094, and P2095 CMP errors , P03xx codes, why not tell all codes and for sure this. do not use 1996 scan tools they are no good, now. lots of codes now for sure massive OEM DTC codes. when the battery dies all learned cam sensors fail until RE-LEARNED the DTC table is full of NOT learned errors. and is not related to dead starter motor ever. the starter works like this on this car told below. STARTER path (electical) I have the real schematic here. battery charges cable lugs all tight and clean, 300amp ready to flow. starter fuse 30amp FL6 not blown out. there are 2 starter relays here. Run crank relay not bad or its. FU27 fuse not blown 10amps FU27 sends 12v to relay named coil starter 2nd RELAY The ECM send ground other coil side (P/N) and 2nd RelaY ENERGIZES. AND SENDS 1VDC TO STARTER SOLENIOD AND SHE CRANKS. The only thing is the tranny park neutral switch must work in P or N selected or ECU will block the starter relay 2 dead. yes DTC can set like this (starter) Trouble Code: P0615 (4.6L V8 VIN A Auto) Starter Relay Control Circuit 616 617 never fail to try cranking in Neutral too, foot on brake. not just PARK

Where is the location of the air conditioner fuse on a Cadillac SRX 2010

It's not a fuse problem, you have electrical gremlins and need an automotive electrician to sort it out. So do yourself a favor and take it to a qualified repair shop.

How do you remove the folded rear seats in a 2011 Cadillac SRX

There isn't much available on how to do that as they are not part of normal operation. My guess is that underneath you will find bolts that you will need a socket set to remove. https://www.google.com/search?q=2011+Cadillac+SRX%2C+remove+folding+third+row+rear+seats ..

Why won't my 2000 Cadillac escalade start? I lost my key 2 days ago..

Sounds like you are trying to fry your Escalade. There is an anti-theft system that requires the key be present in the ignition. If the key isnt it may be bent or altered somehow so it doesnt turn. Check to see of the steering wheel can move at all in either direction. There may be tension on the ignition that prevents the key from turning.

My 1984 cadillac eldorado just started running very fast and idle so high it started overheating and my antifreez came out in to the reservo

old old old car.38 years later. when did it last run good, last week , last yea,r last decade/? fast idle is vacuum leak, or bad IAC. 1500rpm cold is normal not 3000 overheating has many causes. (huge) need a list or just wan to buy tools to test it and find it.> ??? gue$$ing is hard, work and a real slog. hear goes 1 slog1. due to age here is the list (a test each) running 38 year old antifreeze? Lol ? 38 year old thermostat? 7 years is design life EOL ,oops. engine compression test passes? 180-PSI? wot done? rad and engine block flushed out of red rust mud. 38 year old water pump is no good nor is the belt. now. RaD LEAK DOWN TEST, A TOOL; PASS OR FAIL.? RAD , gas test (exh) a tool that see exhaust fumes in the RAD coolant, green/blue tester all shops have all this here. I typed. water leaks anywhere under car or passenger toes. , not the side tank blow out you told and is clear see milk-chocolate for oil in pan, oops leaks. coolant. see milk-chocolate in tranny pan (did sticked , oops) Rad CAP must be replaced this old. the rubber gasket in it is dead. next is see oil or carbon dust in the RAD neck cap off dead cold engine. and full to the top of said neck. (free test eyeballs) ok all is good above and does it overheat only parked or driven or both or only AC on. or all the above, I bet yes all. if overheats parked, the fans must all be good are they.?

Coolant expands naturally hot. that side tank captures it for next cool down cycle and bad rad caps to wreck this cycle. full stop fingers tired. pretend caddy here,,, funny then and Diane Keaton hot .(x100) the bug only needs a fan belt to stay cool....
