How do you fix a short in the horn on a 1992 Cadillac Eldorado?

I assume it is grounding through the steering column-- You could either replace the wiring through the column--make sure isolator is in place and not damaged allowing wire to ground and sound horn--or an easier solution would be to put an auxillary horn button on dash or floor.


All of the lights on the dashboard are out on a 1987 eldorado Cadillac how can it be repaired?

Check the fuse for your tail lights, usually when all of your lights in your instrument cluster are out, it usually meas that either your tail light fuse, or possibly both tail lights are burned out. this is a "safety" feature built into most cars to alert you that there is a problem with your tail lights.


Dashlights don't work then sometimes they do.1988 Cadillac Eldorado?

You likely have either bad contact in the circuit or bad ground. To fix this you would need a manual that has decent circuit diagrams. Factory service manuals are best (check eBay), they tell you all the wire colors and component locations. Haynes manuals are second best, as their diagrams are simplified, but they are cheaper. They are sold at auto parts stores. You can also check the local library and see if you can photocopy the diagrams you need from a book there.
