Asked by dazed0417 Sep 07, 2019 at 10:46 AM about the 1993 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair


Instagram wondering where can I go to
understand what all the other options mean
like I said in my question about the inputs
the overrides I know what the clear codes
mean and there's another one data. I was
hoping someone out there could tell me
where I could go and read up on what these
mean and what I can do to either help
diagnose my vehicle or fix issues. I've been
a mechanic for over 25 years but I was
mainly a front end mechanic did ball joints
brakes rack and pinion things like that I
never got into tune-ups or this type of stuff
with the computer in the dash I would just
plug in my OBD2 and there it was and then I
fixed it I'm not familiar with OBD1 or
Cadillacs any help would be greatly
appreciated

Hi yes I am totally familiar with OBD2 stuff not OBD1 that's why I'm here asking the question or I would just go ahead and do all those things. I already googled what I wanted to know and came up with nothing not even on YouTube. that's why I thought there are many educated people on this site that could help me out with some general answers. I don't mind looking up things after hearing what the people on this site have to say. I'm totally not uneducated when it comes to cars but this is something that has stumped me because I'm not familiar with the Cadillac computer system

On several different things that when replaced, also require further programming to integrate with the systems. Such as the TPS, and ride controls. If any of these things are required, the procedure will be described in the manual, otherwise DONT mess with any of it! It could potentially disable your ride permanently! First step, 1. Buy the book for your vehicle. It's a small price to pay and really nothing should be changed without it! The newer the vehicle, the more dire need for that information....
