I got a major problem with my Cadillac.
While I am turning the car on, will not start due to the Pass Key Fault problem, the light will keep indicate for around more then 10 mints
Then again I tried to start the engine will not start.
What is the problem? Its is some thing to do with the software or should I replace the computer?

Witch computer – any part no is there?

There are a number of things that this could be. However, the most likely issue is the key itself.

So, I would suggest trying another key just to confirm this is a greater issue than this.

If this is not the issue, then the likely issue is the Central Control module as this is what gets the signal from the key and sends it to the PCM to start the engine.

Basically, what I would do is monitor the voltage from the ignition switch and see what it is just to ensure the key and ignition switch are okay.

Once we know this, I would suspect the CCM but let's figure this out first.

Thanks for your answer.

But I took the Cadillac to the dealer; he told me that the CCM (central control module) is defective.

CCM part No. 16197386
