Cadillac: 1992 Cadillac Seville will not start, cadillac seville, 1992 cadillac seville


Question
Mr Joy,
My 92 Seville turns over fine, all electrical seems fine but it will not even try to start. Three days ago when I took a 400 mile trip, I noticed the engine would "flutter" and lose rpm when turn signal, AC fan or anything electrical was switched on or off. The battery is strong and cranks the motor effortlessly. ECM codes are
ED 12
ED 52 HISTORY
NO IPC CODES
NO APC CODES
RO 25 HISTORY
RO 33 HISTORY
RO 34 HISTORY
ECM ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,
Ed Sharkey

Answer
There are no ED codes.

I think you mean EO codes.


What you need to do is CLEAR all the codes and see which ones come back.

Your symptoms describe a possible Fault in the :

Pickup coil in the distributor.

Fault in the Ignition module.

Fault in the cam sensor.

intermittent connection or fault in the PCM computer.

You need to perform some simple teasts with an ohm and volt meter to determine which oif the above is at fault.
