Electrical System
Add-on Electrical Equipment
NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to your Cadillac
unless you check with your dealer first. Some
electrical equipment can damage your vehicle
and
the damage wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
Some add-on electrical equipment can keep other
components
from working as they should.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
add anything electrical to your Cadillac, see “Servicing
Your Air Bag-Equipped Cadillac” in the Index.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring has an individual fuse which is
powered by a MaxiFuse@. An electrical overload will
cause the lamps to
go on and off, or in some cases to
remain off. If this happens, have the headlamp wiring
checked right away.
MaxiFuse
is a registered trademark of Little
Fuse Incorporated.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is powered by a MaxiFuse.
If
the motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc., the
wipers will stop until the motor cools. If the overload
is caused by some electrical problem, be
sure to have
it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers 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.
