1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt battery with a negative
ground system.

sure the vehicles aren’t touching each other.
If they are, it could cause
a ground connection you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to start
your Cadillac, and the bad grounding could damage the electrical
systems.
