It could be a number of things! I would check the computer codes to see if any were set. You should be able to press and hold the "off" and "warmer" buttons on the climate control to display the codes.

Thanks caddydaddy for that info but the problem has gotten worse!! Now the car needs a long time to start, sometimes maybe six to eight try's and then it starts right up. I can turn it off and get in and out of it two or three times and it will start right up, and then back to the same old thing three or six try's and then it starts right up. But I notice something strange yesterday at night whild trying to start the car thery was a noise coming thur the speakers like a poping sound after I had tryed starting it for the six time but the radio was off, then the trunk and gas tank door open on thery own without me pressing anything!!! Spoked me out man!! I don't know should I get a macanic or a priest!!! Could my problem be electrical or fuel related..The code comes up as a stall or possable stall..O one more thing I should mention the car runs fine after it starts, no stalling anymore I put 1 and 1/2 bottle of fuel injecktor cleaner in it. Maybe this is a diffrent problem all together? Maybe it's the security key that starts the car I read somewhere that if the pallet in the key goes bad it won't let the car start could this be the start of that problem, do you know anything about that??

Hmmm, sometimes when a Deville's battery is really low it will open the trunk and gas door. I have seen this before and if I remember correctly it's related to the charging system.
