Most of the information contained here pertains to the 1993-96 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham (D-Bodys), however almost all the components used on these cars are also shared with other Cadillac models and GM makes (ie. B-Bodys). Here's a partial list of other cars that this information might possibly pertain to:
Calibration information on any 1993 or later model year GM vehicle (Buick, Chevrolet, Chevy Truck, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, GMC, Cadillac, and Saturn) equipped with a reprogrammable engine controller (PCM or VCM).

The following programming procedure is for the '93-'96 Fleetwood only. A different procedure is used on the Concours, Deville, Eldorado ETC, Seville SLS, & Seville STS models, which is available by clicking on: 1990-93 RKE Programming or 1994-95 RKE Programming or 1996-97 RKE Programming or 1998+ RKE Programming.
To re-enable the unlock-in-park feature of, just repeat the above to reprogram the RCDLR to your remotes, but don't do the special three-button-three-times sequence. You can match a transmitter to as many different vehicles as you own, provided they are equipped with exactly the same model system. Reviving Dead Key Fobs If you suspect the key fob itself isn’t working, the dealership's parts department has a device that will check to see if it is indeed functioning (transmitting) properly. If you have a frequency counter you can check it as well, output is in the 318-320 MHz range. The couple that I've check have been 318.990 & 319.075 MHz - note that no matter which button you press (light, unlock, lock, trunk open, etc.) the transmit frequency does not change. If they're still not working (after installing fresh batteries) and you feel like messing around with it a little, take the key fob totally apart and clean the contact points behind the rubber membrane and the brass etchings on printed-circuit (PC) board - this may be just enough to bring it back to life! Moisture intrusion and the resulting corrosion on the contacts is usually the culprit in a lot of "not working" situations. RKE Part Numbers RKE Key Fobs (remotes) part numbers. FYI - Most dealerships keep an assortment of these in stock, as they are a fairly common and inexpensive replacement item.
NOTE: The part numbers listed above are for the 1994-96 Cadillac Fleetwood only. The #1 and #2 remotes look identical - the only difference is the number on the back, which determines the order that they are programmed. (*) Note the RKE programming connector on the Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser/Vista Cruiser and Buick Roadmaster wagons is located in the rear "D"-pillar (driver side pillar post just behind the rear window), behind the closure panel.

In 1986 GM introduced a vehicle security system called the Vehicle Anti-Theft System (VATS). The VATS system is an engine starter disable, which will prevent the vehicle from starting unless the proper key is used. GM has enhanced the operation of the system since the introduction by including a fuel shut-off along with starter disable for three minutes, if the incorrect key is used.. The newer system is called PassKey II. Both the VATS and the PassKeyII system basically operate the same. The ignition key used in the vehicle has a coded resistor pellet molded into the key. The resistor pellet is 1 of 15 different values used by GM on this system. There is a small harness, which links the ignition switch to a computer, which reads the resistance of the pellet in the key. If the resistance is correct (or within 10%), the computer will allow the vehicle to start, if the resistance is incorrect the computer will not allow the vehicle to start. The value of the resistor pellet in the key can be found by using a Volt/Ohm meter. Touch each side of the resistor pellet with the probes from the meter, being careful not to touch the ends of the probe with your hands. The 15 resistor codes are:
Oils recommended for use in your vehicle can be identified by looking for the "Starburst" symbol. This symbol indicates that the oil has been certified by the American Petroleum Institute (API) for gasoline engines. Look for a major brand of oil meeting API SJ or ILSAC GF-2. If you're outside North America use an oil that meets AECA 3-96. What Weight Oil? 0W-30, 5W-30 10W-30? GM recommend 5W-30, but the reason GM recommends 5W-30 is that it's the politically correct choice when fuel mileage is a prime consideration. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which oversees fuel economy standards for cars sold in the U.S.A and believes 5W-30 oil is a significant energy conservation measure. The EPA has pressured car companies into using 5W-30s in their new vehicles. In response to this pressure, many years ago a policy was made by GM at the corporate level that, with few exceptions, the recommended oil for all passenger vehicles will be 5W-30. When you read the "Maintenance and Lubrication" section of any GM Service Manual, you will soon discover that there are alternatives -- "The recommended SAE engine oil viscosity is 5W-30, however, if the temperature is above –18 C (O F) 10W-30 may be used." If your engine is regularly operated where outdoor temperatures are above 0 F using an oil of different viscosity range might be better in the long run. Why? Any 5W-30 engine oil, including the synthetic, uses chemical additives, called "viscosity-index improvers" (VI), to widen its viscosity range enough to make it qualify for a 5W-30 rating. VI improvers contribute little to lubrication and can make a "multi-viscosity" oil less effective at high temperatures than an oil without them. Another characteristic of a 5W-30 that can be a problem in severe service is a relatively high evaporation rate at high temperatures compared to lubricants of more narrow viscosity range. A higher evaporation rate contributes to increased oil consumption and substandard lubrication in areas of high temperature. There are no VI improvers in quality, 10W-30, synthetic engine oils and their high-temperature evaporation rate is less. Thus, 10W-30 synthetics are better lubricants in severe duty applications.
A good choice is Mobil 1, 10W-30 synthetic. Mobil-1 is made with a synthesized-hydrocarbon, base-stock and Since GM endorses Mobil-1 (Corvettes come from the factory with Mobil-1 in the crankcase), so it doesn’t hurt to go with what GM uses. Synthetic oils offer the only truly significant differences, as long as its approved to be used in your car, due to their superior high temperature oxidation resistance, high film strength, very low tendency to form deposits, stable viscosity base, and low temperature flow characteristics. Synthetics are superior lubricants when compared to traditional petroleum oils. You can start using synthetic oil in new vehicles at any time. In fact Mobil1 is the factory fill for the Corvette LS-1, LT-1 and LT-5 engines. Mobil and Porsche also have a partnership whereby all Porsche cars manufactured at the Zuffenhausen plant will be lubricated with Mobil 1. One of the myths that still persists about Mobil-1 (or any synthetic oil -- Red Line, Castrol Syntec, Havoline Formula3 Synthetic) is that new engines require a break-in period with conventional oil. Current engine manufacturing technology does not require this break-in period. As the engineers who design Corvette and Porsche engines indicate, Mobil 1 can be used in an engine from the day you drive your car off the show room floor!
After the oil has been changed, you'll need to reset your system. To do that:
If the CHANGE OIL light comes on and stays on for 5 seconds, it did not reset. You'll need to reset the system again. 1993 Fleetwood owners note: The "Change Oil" light on some 1993 model year Fleetwood vehicles (D Cars) equipped with 5.7L (L05, VIN 7) V8 engines may remain on (illuminated) although the reset procedure is followed. The cause is the throttle position sensor (TPS) parameter may be set too high. To correct this, new PROMS have been released to address this condition. There is a bulletin TSB#93-6E-122 (05/19/1993), SI2K Document ID# 438645, that covers all vehicles built through April 1993.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door you are programming. You may want to do this procedure out of the range of your garage door receiver. Programming the Transmitter
To program the remaining two channels (buttons), follow steps 2 through 5. If you have trouble programming the universal transmitter, make sure that you have followed the directions exactly as described and that the battery in the hand held transmitter is not dead or low. If you still cannot program it, rotate the hand held transmitter end over end and try again. The universal transmitter may not work with older garage door openers that do not meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot program the transmitter after repeated attempts, see the section below on Rolling Code garage door openers or consult your Cadillac dealer. Be sure to keep the original hand-held transmitter in case you need to erase and reprogram the universal transmitter. Note to Canadian Owners: Operating the Transmitter: Also note that if the hand held transmitter appears to program the universal transmitter but does not open your garage door, and if the garage door opener was manufactured after 1995, the garage door opener may have a "rolling code" system. A rolling code system changes the code of the garage door opener every time you open or close the garage door. To determine if you have this system, press the button on the universal transmitter that you have programmed already. If the indicator light on the universal transmitter flashes rapidly for one or two seconds, and then stops flashing (or turns solid), the garage door opener has a rolling code system. Training a Garage Door Opener with "Rolling Codes" (If Equipped): If you have not previously programmed the hand-held transmitter, see "Programming the Transmitter" earlier in this section. If you have completed this programming already, you now need to train the garage door opener receiver to recognize the universal transmitter. Refer to your garage door opener owner's manual for the proper transmitter training procedure for your garage door opener brand.
The garage door opener should now recognize the universal transmitter. You may either use the universal transmitter or the hand-held transmitter to open the garage door. If after following these instructions you still have programs training the garage door opener, consult your Cadillac dealer or the HomeLink Transmitter manufacturer at (800) 355-3515 in order to address compatibility concerns.

The factory installs the following bulbs for the following applications:
Cornering Lamp: 2057 Parking Lamp: 2057 Stop, Tail and Directional Signal Lamp: 2057 Front Parking and Directional Signal: 2057NA (NA = Natural Amber coating) Center High-Mounted Stoplamp (CHMSL): 1156 Front Sidemarker lamp: 194 License Plate Lamp: 194 Side Marker Lamps: 194 What is interesting is that although there are several different numbers listed for the above two sets of applications, all of those listed above comprise basically two different kinds of bulbs! All of the bulbs in the first group plug into exactly the same socket and have exactly the same dimensional specifications, and likewise for the bulbs in the latter group. Many different numbered bulbs interchange in these two types of sockets. All of the bulbs in the first group, which comprise the tail and backup lamps, Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL), front park/turn signal as well as the cornering lamps are technically classified as a type S-8 bulb with a DC (Double Contact) index (staggered pin) base, dual C-6 (straight across bar type helical coil) filaments, and a 1.250" LCL (Light Center Length is the distance from the base to the filaments). These bulbs are about 1.041" (26.44mm) maximum diameter and 2.0" (50.8mm) in overall length. There are several bulbs with these exact same specifications, however they differ in the light output or wattage of each filament, and in some cases the average filament life. There are several bulbs which meet the S-8 specification, and which are interchangeable in an automobile application: These bulbs listed below are like-wattages, high-efficiency replacements. DO NOT use aftermarket halogen replacement bulbs in brake or turn signallamps (or reverse, cornering lamps) because the lamp assemblies can't withstand the intense extra heat nor can the wiring withstand the increased current draw.
This data was taken from a Wagner Lamp Specification Guide, other brand bulbs may vary slightly in specs, but not by much. As you can see from this table, the bulbs are listed roughly in order from dimmest to brightest. For example, comparing the 2057 that comes in the taillight with an 2357 replacement, you can see that they are essentially the same bulb, except the 2357 would be about 50% brighter on the low (parking light) and about 25% brighter on the high (stop light) filament. This will make the brake lights, turn signals, and cornering lights that much brighter. There is a slight tradeoff in bulb life. Each one of these bulbs is also available in an "NA" version, which means the bulb is coated with a Natural Amber coating. For example, the front park/turn signal bulbs are 2057NA, but you can replace them with brighter (both in park and turn signal mode) 2357NA bulbs. Now for the other group of lights: the Rear License Plate, Front & Rear Side Markers lamps all use the same basic type of bulb. These are a T3-1/4 Wedge Base bulb, which is about 0.4" (10.3mm) in diameter and 0.81" (20.6mm) in overall length. There are several bulbs which meet this specification, and as such are interchangeable:
Door locks cycle while driving, then quit working electronically? TAC has a solution for this complaint. The fix involved is to add a relay in to circuit to power down anti-theft module. Also check for wiring rubbing in the rear doors on the front run channel bracket. Remember there is a door lock switch to lock only in the rear doors. There has been more rights than lefts rubbed through Or the other possibility is that the RKE programing wires are touching together and cause a lock cycle when going over bumps, might also be possible the programming wires are touching ground.
If you have a cruise control problem check to see if the CHMSL (center high mounted stop light, i.e. third brake lights) are working. Seems the cruise circuit uses the CHMSL bulbs for a ground or something like that, if one is out the cruise control won't engage.
This feature allows the Automatic Control Air Conditioning (ACAC) system to be custom calibrated to the desire of the operator. This is done by programming an offset in the memory to increase or decrease the actual interior temperature above or below the set temperature.
Applies To: Condition: Some customers may comment of a hesitation during heavy/full throttle acceleration. A 1996 vehicle may also set any of the following DTCs: P0410, P0412, P1415, P1416, P0100, P0101, P0102. A 1995 vehicle may set a DTC 48. There will also be evidence of water in the AIR pump. Cause: Under high engine speed and load conditions, hot exhaust gasses may leak past the air check valves. As the exhaust gasses in the air tube cool, water vapors collect into the AIR pump. As the vehicle is driven, condensation from the AIR pump may come into contact with the Mass Airflow Sensor through the AIR inlet hose. This condition may cause a hesitation on acceleration and may also set the DTCs.
From the factory the flash-to-pass feature of the turn signal is set to flash the low-beams. Flash to pass should flash the high-beams. To correct this, it is necessary to remove the knee bolster, unclip the dimmer switch connector and reverse the LT-GRN and TAN terminals. The terminals may be removed using a stiff, thin-gauge wire (like a paperclip) to help bend the retaining tab towards the terminal body. The entire procedure can be found in the Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) #53-82-10 Flash-To-Pass Uses Low Beams Instead Of High Beams. For Canadian (or export-spec) Fleetwoods flash-to-pass was disabled because of the Daytime-Running-Lights (DRL) feature. To enable FTP, it is necessary to supply power from the headlamp circuit breaker to terminal B on the dimmer switch. These parts haven't changed in years, so it is easy to find spare dimmer switch connectors.
A variable effort steering electrical system malfunction will cause the power steering system to revert to full-time full-power assist. By disconnecting the electrical connector from the valve on the pump (right next to the #2 exhaust port) will leave the system in full assist mode (least effort) at all times. If having full boost all the time doesn’t suite you, you can simply reconnected the lead you disconnected and the system will return to variable assist steering mode.
The angle is of the blade to the windshield is critical to good wiper performance - the blade has to be square with the glass. A clean wax-free windshield is also imperative. GM recommends Bon Ami as a glass cleaning agent. This will remove any wax or silicone (from vinyl roofs treated with a silicone based product) residue on the windshield.
