Where is the blower motor relay on a 1998 Cadillac deville?
A 1998 Cadillac Deville does not have a blower relay. The system has a fuse and a controller to feed power to the blower motor.
Why do you use 330 ohm resistor for LED?
It is not 330 ohms it is a value that must be installed in series to insure a 20ma or so of current limiting. This value of 330 ohms can change greatly if the source voltage changes greatly. It also has to be noted that the LEDS are not created equally So each LED voltage drop can be added to the equation.
Where do you get a copy of the fuse panel for a 1993 Cadillac sedan deville?
Towards the back of the owners manual Cadillac listed a very detailed diagram with photo. Also the back of the fuse panel cover that pulls off, there is a sticker with basic info on most cars. Manuals if you dont have one can be purchased reasonably on ebay.
The fuse panel itself will fold down for access on a hinge. You have to CAREFULLY squeeze the two black plastic tabs together and the entire panel folds down. Then the cover, if still present snaps off for access to the fuses.
If you need a quick answer to a specific fuse location, I will be happy to look in my manual for you
Exactly how is going to depend on who installed the alarm. There would be a relay which (likely) breaks the starter cable. You'd need to locate this relay and reconnect the starter cable where the relay has been inserted. Not much help, I guess, but for what it's worth.
If you know where the alarm module is you could try tracing the cables from it, or (easier) try tracing the starter cable from the switch until you find a break (tape, splices, whatever) then just remove the inserted cables and join (repair) the starter cable. If anyone has a wiring diagram that would give the colour of the cable, it would help.
What is the Cadillac abs code c1295 fix?
C1295 means (Brake lamp switch circuit open). Most likely a bad brake switch on the brake peddle, or a bad capacitor between the 2 switches.

How do you know if you got a 429?
First of all it would be helpful to know what year of car you're talking about - or do you just have an engine? Cadillac used a 429 cu. in. engine starting in 1964 through to 1967.
How do you replace the water pump on a 1991 Cadillac Deville 4.9L front wheel drive?
It is a big job so get a manual from the parts store.
i just did mine the other day, What you want to do go get your water pump and your gasket and blue gasket sealer a big tube not them little packets,remove batter and raidiator overflow, leave the belt on and loosen the 3 bolts on the pulley(which is a pain in the ass, use a screwdriver or another wrench 10mm i think, then remove the belt and remove all the other bolts holding the pump to the engine face, there are alot of them just to warn you, after you remove the pump scrape off where the old gasket was with a putty knife, apply gasket sealer to the gasket and then place on the gasket then the same with the pump, you then have to put the bolts back in and then you have to tighten up the pulley by hand then put belt on then tighten bolts more, although it did look like there was lock tight or something on the pulley bolts i removed i didnt put nothing on i just tightened them as much as i could i have not checked there tightness yet though, if you do this then you may want to check them a day or two after
This is all correct, but some tips: after scraping the block clean, spray with brake cleaner and wipe clean with a rag. Also, dont use that silicone goop. Instead use high tack. Its much cleaner and goes on much neater. I have a more detailed description as an answer to a 92 caddy water pump replacement that will work for all 4.9L Here it is:
- Remove the coolant overflow bottle.
- Remove the battery.
- Loosen the pulley bolts.
- Loosen or remove the drive belt.
- Remove pulley bolts
- Remove all studs and bolts from old water pump.
- Pull old pump off. Use a screwdriver to start it but be careful not to bend the old pump. Also, tapping the center of the pulley lightly with a hammer may help loosen it. If it is hard to get out, check and make sure all bolts are removed. When you remove the pump, there will not be enough room to remove the pulley drum from the pump. This is important to remember when installing the new water pump.
- Scrape area off with a gasket scraper and razor blade to remove old gasket. Make sure its clean! Spray it with brake cleaner and wipe clean afterward.
- Spray both sides of the new gasket with high tack. High tack works much better than the goop because it is clean, even, and seals well.
- Slip gasket in carefully and be sure it fits properly over bolts and is in correct placement against block. Press down to ensure seal.
- Spray the inside of the water pump with high tack evenly.
- Install water pump into correct place against block making sure that pulley drum is already hanging from new pump or you will not get it on afterward!
- Install bolts and studs and tighten down.
- Install pulley screws and tighten as best you can.
- Reinstall and tighten drive belt.
- Finish tightening pulley bolts.
- Reinstall battery and coolant overflow bottle being sure that bottle is empty.
- Let sealant dry overnight.
- Fill system with water next day/morning and run/drive car as normal until you are sure it is not leaking.
- If no leaks exist, drain system and fill with proper coolant mixture.
- Return old water pump in box for return on core fee.
Ive done this twice on a 92 Sedan DeVille, so just post any questions you have. If your wondering why I did it twice, the part store sold me a bad pump that went out within two months.
Check to see if you are getting power to the blower motor - if so motor is defective if not problem in circuitry to blower motor

Why is the air warmer on the passenger side vent than the driver side vent on a 1991 Previa?
the reason for the air being warmer on one side than the other is because the mecanism that provide air intake in the ac system has the foam sealer worn out it need a new sealer if you remove the air duck unther the hood you will see the problem on the cap that seal the air that goes in to the car
How do you correct a rough ride on a 1996 grand marquis with rear air ride shocks?
Replace the shocks, or struts if equipped.
What is the unit of measures for resistors?
Resistor values are given in ohms. A value may be selected to deliver a specific current at a given voltage. This is given in what is known as Ohm's Law where:
Voltage (V) = Current (A) X Resistance (Ohm)
A 12ohm resistor placed across a 12V battery would pass 1Amp of current and put out 12W of heat.
How can you tell when the engine is bad on a 1994 sedan deville cadillac?
The most serious problem that a 15 year old Northstar would suffer from is a bad headgasket. There is a relatively easy procedure to test for the presence of exhaust gases in the coolant. Most larger auto parts stores have the kit to do this. It is the only FOOLPROOF way to test for a bad HG, other than a cylinder pressure test. Northstars, despite their (unearned) bad reputation in some circles, are quite well designed.
How do you disconnect trunk pull down motor on a 1994 town car?
Pull the carpeting back around the latch. You'll see the motor, and there will be a plug attached to it. Pull the plug.
