2007 CADILLAC STS V fuse

If a door, hood, or the trunk is opened without
the keyless access transmitter, the horn will
sound for 30 seconds and the lamps will ash
for two minutes. The vehicle cannot be started
without a keyless access transmitter.
The Theft-Deterrent system will not arm if:
The key is used to turn the key cylinder to
the lock position.
The driver’s door is locked using the power
door lock switch after the doors are closed.
If the vehicle is locked using the keyless access
transmitter and the trunk lid, hood or a door
is open or not closed completely, the security
light will ash for 60 seconds and then turn off.
At this time, the theft-deterrent system is armed
but the alarm will not sound if the trunk lid, hood or
door that was not closed completely is tampered
with or opened. The alarm will sound for the
trunk lid, hood or a door that was completely
closed at the time the vehicle was locked using
the keyless access transmitter.
The vehicle can be programmed to automatically
unlock the doors and disarm the theft-deterrent
system when you approach the vehicle and
the keyless access transmitter is with you. See
Vehicle Personalization on page 148.Pressing the unlock button on the keyless access
transmitter or using the key to unlock the
driver’s door disarms the theft-deterrent system.
Unlocking a door any other way while the
system is armed will activate the alarm.
Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window,
then get out of the vehicle, keeping the
door open.
2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door
open, lock the vehicle using the power door
lock switch or the keyless access transmitter
and close the door. Wait about 30 seconds
until the security light goes off.
3. Reach in and open the door using the inside
door handle. The horn will sound and the
exterior lamps will ash.
You can turn off the alarm by pressing the unlock
button on the keyless access transmitter or by
starting the car.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown.

Engine Coolant Heater
Your vehicle may be equipped with an engine
coolant heater.
In very cold weather, 0°F (−18°C) or colder, the
engine coolant heater can help. You will get easier
starting and better fuel economy during engine
warm-up.
Usually, the coolant heater should be plugged in a
minimum of four hours prior to starting your
vehicle. At temperatures above 32°F (0°C), use of
the coolant heater is not required. Your vehicle
may also have an internal thermostat in the
plug end of the cord. This will prevent operation of
the engine coolant heater when the temperature
is at or above 0°F (−18°C) as noted on the cord.
To Use the Engine Coolant Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord.
For the 3.6L V6 engine, the cord is located in
the engine compartment on the passenger’s
side of the vehicle in front of the fuse block.
For the 4.6L V8 engine, the cord is located in
the engine compartment on the driver’s
side of the vehicle near the inner fender and
above the strut.
For the 4.4L V8 engine, the cord is located in
the front of the engine compartment, on
the passenger’s side of the vehicle. The plug
will be inside the upper grille cutout.
3. You must remove the plastic cap to access
the plug.

Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to
ash to signal a lane change. Hold it there until the
lane change is complete. The lever returns to its
original position when it is released.
Rapid ashing of arrows when signaling for a turn
or lane change may be caused by a burned-out
signal bulb. Other driver’s will not see the signal.
Replace burned-out bulbs to help avoid possible
accidents. Check the fuse and for burned-out bulbs
if the arrow fails to work when signaling a turn.
SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 487for
more information.
Turn Signal On Chime
If the turn signal is left on for about 1 mile (1.6 km),
a warning chime will sound and the TURN
SIGNAL ON message will appear on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) display. See “Turn Signal

lever to change the headlamps from low to high
beam. Pull the lever back and then release it
to change from high to low beam.
If you turn the vehicle off with the high beams on,
the next time you start your vehicle the low
beams will be on.
To re-activate high beams, pull lever toward you

To turn the HUD image off, turn the knob
counter-clockwise.
Polarized sunglasses could make the HUD image
harder to see.
As light shines out from the HUD, it is possible for
light to shine back in. In rare occurrences,
when the sun is at a specic angle and position,
the sun’s rays can shine back into the HUD. When
this occurs, the display device within the HUD
will be temporarily illuminated. The event will end
when the vehicle’s angle to the sun changes.
Clean the inside of the windshield as needed to
remove any dirt or lm that reduces the sharpness
or clarity of the HUD image.
To clean the HUD, spray household glass cleaner
on a soft, clean cloth. Wipe the HUD lens gently,
then dry it.
Notice:When cleaning, be careful not to
scratch the HUD or camera lenses. Do
not spray glass cleaner directly on the HUD
lens because the cleaner could leak inside the
unit and cause damage.
If the ignition is on and you cannot see the HUD
image, check to see if:
Something is covering the HUD unit.
The brightness is adjusted properly.
The HUD image is adjusted to the
proper height.
Ambient light in the direction your vehicle is
facing is low.
A fuse is blown. SeeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 487.
Keep in mind that your windshield is part of the
HUD system. SeeWindshield Replacement
on page 419.
The following Adaptive Cruise Control message
may appear in the HUD:
PEDAL APPLIED ACC OVERRIDE:This
message indicates that you are pressing your
foot on the accelerator pedal and overriding
Adaptive Cruise Control. While you are doing
this, the system will not automatically apply the
brakes. Once you remove your foot from the
accelerator pedal, Adaptive Cruise Control will
return to normal operation and be able to apply
the brakes, if needed.
You may also see an Adaptive Cruise Control
active symbol, alert symbol or vehicle ahead
symbol. SeeAdaptive Cruise Control on page 197
