Are you sure the engine is not grounded? Could be the starter relay. To make sure it is not a ground problem use a battery jumper cable and connect the engine to the negative battery post. Also make sure the battery did not lose its charge while working on the belt. Possible key left on.

My 2003 Cadillac CTS key stuck in the ignition and the gearshift is stuck
Is it stuck in the engine "off" position?
1.) Check your car battery. If it's very low or dead, it may be preventing the ignition from unlocking. If it's low or dead, charge it and try again.
2.) If the battery checks out okay, press firmly on the "S" button (sport mode) next to the gear shifter. Surprisingly, that somehow solves the issue sometimes.
3.) If that doesn't work, there may be a problem with the ECM. But try the two steps above first as needed, and if that doesn't work, feel free to post back.
2000 Cadillac Escalade. The fuses for tail lights keep blowing, why?
Brett has the right answer. It is a dead short because of the reasons he mentions. Great work Brett. Also check behind the fuse box for rubbed or damaged wires.

2001 Cadillac Deville. What would cause the water pump pulley to melt on it?
The water pump pulley on your car may melt if the water pump belt tensioner seizes, causing the pulley to overheat and deform. This may also result in the engine overheating and possibly damaging the head gasket. To fix this problem, you will need to replace the water pump drive pulley, the water pump belt, and the tensioner pulley. You may also need a special tool to remove and install the new pulley.

How can I get into my 2002 Cadillac DeVille's glove box. It appears to be locked and I don't have the master key, just the valet key.
If you're having trouble accessing your 2002 Cadillac DeVille's glove box because it seems to be locked and you only have the valet key, here are a few steps you can try:
- Check for a Separate Valet Key Slot:
- Some vehicles have a separate valet key slot inside the glove box. Insert the valet key into this slot, turn it, and see if it unlocks the glove box.
- Inspect for a Release Button:
- Examine the perimeter of the glove box for a hidden release button. Some glove boxes have a button or latch that may not be immediately visible.
- Use the Main Ignition Key:
- Even if you primarily use the valet key, try using the main ignition key to unlock the glove box. Sometimes, the valet key may not have the same features as the main key.
- Check the Owner's Manual:
- Refer to the vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions on unlocking the glove box. It may provide information on alternate methods or features specific to your Cadillac DeVille.
- Contact the Dealership:
- If none of the above steps work, consider contacting your Cadillac dealership. They may be able to provide guidance on unlocking the glove box or assist with obtaining a replacement key.
- Professional Locksmith:
- If all else fails, you may need to consult a professional locksmith. They have tools and expertise to help unlock car compartments, including glove boxes.
Remember to avoid using excessive force as it may damage the glove box. Additionally, make sure you have proof of ownership and identification when seeking assistance from the dealership or a locksmith. If your vehicle has an electronic locking mechanism, it's essential to rule out any electrical issues or malfunctions as well.
What's the firing order for a 1995 Cadillac DeVille 4.9 V8
Engine firing order (1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2)
The cylinder numbering usually starts from the timing belt or chain side, so it does on your engine also.
The FRONT BANK (at the radiator ! ) : 1 3 5 7, starting at the passenger side
The REAR BANK (at the firewall): 2 4 6 8 , starting at the pass. side also.
The #1 cylinder on the distributor cap is around 3 o'clock and the rotor turns counter clockwise.
Has no reverse. Will go
Your transmission is bad. You need to replace it soon if you are still driving it. At any moment you may lose forward and only have reverse (trust me it happened to me and I was dumb enough to drive it seven blocks back home in reverse).
Does anyone know what wirring abbreviation NCA means for 191 eldorado
Regardless the year, maker, model it stands for No Color Associated/Assigned. In most Chrysler schematics I've seen generally the wire leading from the alternator (8 gauge on stud with nut) is listed NCA going to a fusible link (10 gauge) sitting between the 8 gauge Red battery connection.
