INFORMATION
SUBJECT:
PROCEDURE TO ALLOW AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS TO REMAIN IN LOCKED POSITION WHEN THE GEAR SHIFTER IS SET TO
"PARK"
MODELS:
1994 CADILLAC CONCOURS, DEVILLE, ELDORADO AND SEVILLE
Some owners prefer the automatic door lock function (ADL) to remain in the lock position when they shift the gear position to "PARK". Currently, the
automatic door lock feature unlocks the doors when the gear shifter is set to "PARK".
In order to change the automatic door locks function (lock/unlock), it is necessary to move the circuit connection at cavity C13 of the keyless entry
module to cavity C12 of the module. A portion of the circuit schematic appears in Attachment 1. (Refer to Section 8A-132-10 of the Service Manual for
the full schematic.) The complete procedure is as follows:
1.
Disconnect negative battery cable.
2.
The keyless entry module is mounted on the left-hand electronics bay (Figure 1) located in the front left-hand corner of the luggage compartment.
To gain access to this panel, remove the rear compartment front trim panel from the luggage compartment. Refer to Section 10-8 of the Service
Manual for the removal procedure.
3.
Disconnect electrical connector (Figure 1) from remote keyless entry module.
