The most likely culprit for the gauges would be a connector at the back that needs cleaning with contact cleaner. However with the issues with door locks and gas/trunk locks, I am going to guess the Body Control Module. For jobs like this, you really need a good auto-electrician or our Expert Jeff Armer. I'll try and tag him...

Shouldn't be hard.

It's internal. If you don't have someone working for you that can dig into it. Take it to a transmission shop. Your picture gave you away.

Hi Mike, It sounds like it could be a problem with the "linkage" Linkage is the term used to describe the mechanical connection (rods, elbows, swivels, etc.) that are between the gear shift and the transmission itself. If bent, loose, jammed, etc. you'll have troubles not unlike those you're describing. If you cant get it to shift in the direction you want go - you'll have to have it towed to the repair shop of choice. If found to be the problem - it shouldn't be an repair really - so good luck!

Something inside the transmission. TCC solenoid/valve could be a cause. Have the codes checked, even if the check engine light isn't on.

Are you sure the engine is not grounded? Could be the starter relay. To make sure it is not a ground problem use a battery jumper cable and connect the engine to the negative battery post. Also make sure the battery did not lose its charge while working on the belt. Possible key left on.

Is it stuck in the engine "off" position? 1.) Check your car battery. If it's very low or dead, it may be preventing the ignition from unlocking. If it's low or dead, charge it and try again. 2.) If the battery checks out okay, press firmly on the "S" button (sport mode) next to the gear shifter. Surprisingly, that somehow solves the issue sometimes. 3.) If that doesn't work, there may be a problem with the ECM. But try the two steps above first as needed, and if that doesn't work, feel free to post back.

You need a specialist rather than a 'mechanic'. An auto electrician with a professional grade scan tool computer can diagnose all the security system, the anti-theft immobilizer and all the modules and sensors in about 40 minutes. They also have access to the wiring diagrams and understand them. https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me ..

If you're having trouble accessing your 2002 Cadillac DeVille's glove box because it seems to be locked and you only have the valet key, here are a few steps you can try:

1. Check for a Separate Valet Key Slot:
   • Some vehicles have a separate valet key slot inside the glove box. Insert the valet key into this slot, turn it, and see if it unlocks the glove box.
2. Inspect for a Release Button:
   • Examine the perimeter of the glove box for a hidden release button. Some glove boxes have a button or latch that may not be immediately visible.
3. Use the Main Ignition Key:
   • Even if you primarily use the valet key, try using the main ignition key to unlock the glove box. Sometimes, the valet key may not have the same features as the main key.
4. Check the Owner's Manual:
   • Refer to the vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions on unlocking the glove box. It may provide information on alternate methods or features specific to your Cadillac DeVille.
5. Contact the Dealership:
   • If none of the above steps work, consider contacting your Cadillac dealership. They may be able to provide guidance on unlocking the glove box or assist with obtaining a replacement key.
6. Professional Locksmith:
   • If all else fails, you may need to consult a professional locksmith. They have tools and expertise to help unlock car compartments, including glove boxes.

Remember to avoid using excessive force as it may damage the glove box. Additionally, make sure you have proof of ownership and identification when seeking assistance from the dealership or a locksmith. If your vehicle has an electronic locking mechanism, it's essential to rule out any electrical issues or malfunctions as well.
