I have a 1990 cadillac coup deville eldorado. I have owned it for several years but all of the sudden the security system will go off randomly. I have to manually unlock the doors and leave it unlocked. Sometimes it works and other times it does not. When it doesn't work, the battery is drained by morning. Can I disable the security system? If so how?

You would need to replace the Lock Cylinder assembly. It has the " Key Reader" built into it. Or you can Ohm Out the key and put a resistor of the same value at the plug into the pcm wiring harness.

I have a 1990 Cadillac Eldorado with a 4.5 litre gas engine. When the car is running there is a very strong smell like gas out of the exhaust pipe and seems to get stronger as the car is driven more. 1 Answer

The smell of gas gets worse when I park the car after driving it for awhile. There are no gas leaks anywhere on the car and the smell of gas seems to come from under the car or the exhaust system.
