What would cause the trunk to open by itself and lock the car doors on a 1999 Cadillac STS?

There is probably a short somewhere that is supplying power to the circut to "pop" the trunk and lock the doors. Try to find a wiring diagram and locate where the two circuts cross or run close together.

I think you need to have your battery checked, when the voltage gets so low this system does this.

DTC display; 1998-2004 Seville and other model years with 3 buttons on the RH side of DIC

Use the 3 switches located to the right (LH drive cars) of the Driver Information Center (DIC) to activate and respond to the OBD prompts on the DIC.

ON/OFF = YES

INFO RESET = NO

INFO DOWN or INFO UP = manual toggle

Ignition ON, acknowledge any warning messages; press ON/OFF and INFO UP together for 2 to 3 seconds. Everything in front of you lights up for 4 or 5 seconds, then you will see:

Display shows "ALL?"

Answering YES will display "ALL CODES?"

Answering YES will run automatic test sequence and display codes, if any. Systems and codes will scroll faster than I am able to read them and write them; not to worry.

"ALL CLEAR CODES?" will display at the end of the automatic test. If you are satisfied you have the information you need, answer YES to clear/erase all error codes.

Answering "ALL?" with INFO DOWN will toggle systems test manually in order.

Answering "ALL?" with INFO UP will toggle system test manually in reverse order.

Press INFO RESET to reset DIC to "ALL?" to start again.

Ignition OFF to exit.

Cadillac wont start or turn over?

No car can start until it turns over. Meaning the starter has to engage. So you have at least one problem or more. You have to have a good battery and it has to be 12.6 volts and remain at 8-12 vol;ts while trying to crank. When you cut the ignition on - the instrument panel has to light up and when you go to "start " you have to hear a soleniod in the starter go clunk. No clunk? There is a problem in the circuit to the soleniod. Clunks - but no turn over? Bad connection from the starter to the battery or bad starter.

Which hose do you put the freon in in a 93 cadillac deville?

It is always the low side, the larger of the two hoses. On some cars, it is connected directly to the drier, which looks like a tall can with hoses coming from it on the left side under the hood, mounted near the fender. Good idea to pressure test it.

Why would a 1996 Cadillac loose all power and not charge the battery?

the most likely reason for this is your battery is no longer capable to hold a charge.... either the acid is no longer good or too low to supplement the charge, or there is a problem with the plates inside the battery, either way you might want to purchase a new battery.... if the battery is fairly new, another problem could be that the "recharging system" for the vehicle is not functioning properly, this could be from a bad alternator or a wire or few could be connected wrong, not connected at all or missing, or the wiring or connection at the battery terminals could be corroded so badly that electricity will not transfer through.... if the problem appears to be corrosion of the terminals, a can of terminal cleaner and a wire brush will alleviate the problem, you should also invest in a can of terminal protectant as well.... if you still cannot solve the problem, have a trustworthy mechanic take a look.

How do you replace starter on 1997 STS Cadillac?

The starter is located under the intake manifold. You will need to remove the EGR tube and the intake air tube from the throttle body. Remove the bolts around the perimeter of the intake manifold and from the passenger side of the engine compartment you can lift the intake up far enough to gain access to the starter. Remember to disconnect the battery negative terminal first. I have used a bungee cord to hang the intake in the air while working on the starter. Remove the two wires leading to the starter and then the two 13mm bolts securing the starter to the engine block. Pull the starter out from under the intake manifold and install the new starter in the reverse order. The intake manifold gaskets are reusable.

How do you reset low coolant alarm 97 Seville?

The "check coolant level" message will come on when the coolant level is low in the overflow tank.
