1994 CADILLAC SEVILLE wiring

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure,
and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
Following Distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the vehicle ahead as you would when
driving your vehicle without a trailer. This can help you avoid situations
that require heavy braking,and sudden turns.
Passing
You’ll need more passing distance up ahead when you’re towing a trailer.
And, because you’re a good deal longer, you’ll need to go much farther
beyond the passed vehicle before you can return to your lane.
Backing Up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand. Then, to move the
trailer to the left, just move that hand to the left. To move the trailer to
the right, move your hand
to the right. Always back up slowly and, if
possible, have someone guide you.
Making Turns
When you’re turning with a trailer, make wider turns than normal. Do
this so your trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees, or
other objects. Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in advance.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has to have a different turn signal
flasher and extra wiring. The green arrows on your instrument panel will
flash whenever you signal a turn or lane change. Properly hooked up, the
trailer lights will also flash, telling
other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes or stop.
When towing
a trailer, the green arrows on your instrument panel will
flash for turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are burned out. Thus, you
may think drivers behind you are seeing your signal when they are not.
It’s important to check occasionally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still
working.

accessories for
10 more minutes:
Radio
Power Windows
Astroroof
Windshield Wipers

everything will go
off, also.
If you want power for another
10 minutes, just turn the key to Run and
then
back to Off.
FUSES AND,CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a
combination
of Mini Fuses, Circuit Breakers, and Maxi Fuses. This
greatly reduces the chance of fires caused by electrical problems.
If you have a problem on the road and don’t have a spare fuse, you can
“borrow” one of the same value. Select a feature that you can get along
without that is the same value you need --like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse. Be.sure to use a fuse with the same amperage
rating number on it
(ie. lOA, 20A, etc.) Replace it as soon as you can.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Headlights
The headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch.
An electrical overload will cause the lights to go on and off, or in some
cases to remain off.
If this happens, have your headlight wiring checked
right away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiDer motor
is protected by a circuit breaker
and a fuse.
If the motor overhkats due to heavy snow, etc., the wiper will stop until
the motor cools. If the overload is caused by some electrical problem and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options r
1 Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power windows and other power
accessories. When the current load
is too heavy, the circuit breaker opens and
closes, protecting the circuit until the problem is fixed or goes away. 7
