Hi,

I need to know what type of vehicle it is. Is it the van? Also, if it is a Cadillac, the Fleetwood and Eldorado are two different model vehicles. Please confirm that for me along with the engine size.

If it is a 1993 GM vehicle, I need you to check something for me. It will have an OBD1 computer system that doesn't require a scan tool to retrieve codes. All you will need is a simple jumper wire or even a paper clip. Follow the directions in this link and let me know if codes are retrieved:

Let me know as much as you can.

Take care,

Joe
