Re: Reverse Sensor Adjustment
Found it:
Your Cadillac is equipped with a very good on-board diagnostic system capable of reading out the stored trouble codes. Contained here is information and instructions for entering the onboard self-diagnostic mode.
Master Index
There are to be sure many ways to describe the superlative motor car pictured. "Beauty," "majesty," "brilliance" - all apply, in their fullest meaning, to this new Cadillac. And yet, from this wonderful vocabulary, we have selected "elegance" as the word that most fully characterizes the Cadillac of the 1960. The car's beautiful, clean-lined styling is certainly elegant beyond compare. Its new interior luxury provides a feeling of elegance that can be sensed nowhere else in the world of motor cars. And even its new performance - smooth, quiet and effortless - might be summarized as "elegance in motion." Once you have seen and driven it for yourself, we think you will agree that the word is "elegance' - and that the car is Cadillac! Cadillac Advertisement
Go HomeSERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHTGo Top- The dash mounted "CHECK ENGINE" light (also called "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" (SES) or "MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP" (MIL) on some model years) is used to inform the technician of detected system malfunctions or abnormalities. When the check engine light turns on, it indicates that a malfunction has occurred for which a trouble code has been set. The trouble code can be retreived with either the on-board diagnostic display, or on some model years, through the use of a Tech-2 scan tool. The malfunction may or may not result in abnormal engine operation. The light goes out automatically once the required repairs are made or if the fault clears itself (intermittent). However, the computer stores the trouble code(s) associated with the detected failure until the diagnostic system, is "Cleared" or until 20 (or 50) ignition switch (on-off) cycles have occurred without the fault reappearing.
Proper operation of the light is as follows:- With the engine running the light is normally off.
- A bulb check is preformed when the ignition is in the "On" and "Crank" positions. When the engine starts, the bulb goes out.
- The light comes on and stays on when a constant malfunction is detected.
- If a malfunction is intermittent, the light will go out when the malfunction is not present. The light will come on each time a malfunction is detected (may flicker on/off).
- The light stays on when the system is displaying the diagnostic routine.
The dash mounted digital display panel, either the Electronic Climate Control (ECC) or Driver's Information Center (DIC), can be temporarily directed to display trouble codes stored in the onboard computer.
Go Home1980s DIAGNOSTIC DISPLAYGo Top- HOW TO "ENTER" DIAGNOSTIC MODE
To enter diagnostic mode, proceed as follows:- Turn the ignition "ON". Engine can be either OFF or RUNNING.
- Depress the "OFF" and "WARMER" buttons on the ECC panel simultaneously and hold until "--" appears. "88" will then be displayed which indicated the beginning of the diagnostic readout.
- Trouble codes will be displayed on the digital ECC panel beginning with the lowest numbered code. Note that the MPG panel goes blank when the system is displaying as the diagnostic mode.
HOW TO "CLEAR" TROUBLE CODES
Trouble codes stored in the ECM's memory may be cleared (erased) by entering the diagnostic mode and then depressing the "OFF" and "HI" button simultaneously. Hold until "00" appears. After "00" is displayed the ECM will display "70".
HOW TO "EXIT" DIAGNOSTIC MODE
To get out of the diagnostic mode, depress any of the ECC "function" keys (Auto, Econ, etc. except Rear Defog) or turn ignition switch off for 10 seconds. Trouble codes are not erased when this is done. The temperature setting will reappear in the display panel.

Go Home1990s DIAGNOSTIC DISPLAY
OBD-1 Equipped VehiclesGo Top- HOW TO "ENTER" DIAGNOSTIC MODE
To enter diagnostic mode, proceed as follows:- Turn ignition "ON." Engine can be either OFF or RUNNING.
- Depress the "OFF" and "WARMER" buttons on the Climate Control Center (CCC) simultaneously and hold until the segment check appears on the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC).
After entering On-Board Diagnostics, a segment check is automatically performed and then any trouble code stored in computer memory will be displayed. Codes may be stored for the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC), Air Conditioning Programer (ACP), Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) Traction Control System (TCS) or Road Sensing Suspension (RSS) systems.
Each trouble code consists of the system abbreviation: (P: Powertrain, PCM), (E: Engine, ECM), (I: Instrument Panel Cluster , IPC), (A: Air Conditioning, ACP), (R: Supplemental Inflatable Restraint - Air Bags, SIR), (T: Traction Control - Anit-Lock Brakes, TCS), (S: Road Sensing Suspension, RSS), a three digit code identifier, and the letter C or H. All codes for each system are displayed together, in the order of their three digit number (lowest first). The final digit of the code, a "C" or "H" is used to indicate whether the code is Current or History. A "C" means the fault was still present the last time the diagnostic test was run, while "H" means the failure was not present the last time the code was tested for.
If no codes are present for a system, a "NO X CODE" message (with "X" being the system i.e. E, I, A, R, T or S) will be displayed. If the communication line to a component is not operating, a "NO X DATA" message will be displayed, indicating that the IPC could not communicate with that system.
HOW TO "CLEAR" TROUBLE CODES
Selection of "CLEAR CODES?" test will result in the message "CODES CLEARED" being displayed along with the selected systems name. This message will appear for 3 seconds and then return to the next available test type.
HOW TO "EXIT" DIAGNOSTIC MODE
To get out of the diagnostic mode anytime during the test, depress the "AUTO" or "DEFOG" button, or turn the ignition switch "OFF." Trouble codes are not erased if this is done prior to selecting "CODES CLEARED." Additional information on Trouble Codes and Diagnostic Procedures specific to the Early-1990s OBD-I Cadillacs.
