top pull down problem

[rickko]

I don't see "Truck" housing in this search results. Don't know why you do.



Sorry, I don't have my parts book any longer but I do know if you go to any GM dealership they can look it up for you. Take the part number I listed and ask them if its the right one for what you want.

Rickko, do you still have a link with the pics? My convertible pulldown has decided to stop rising.

I'm not seeing any pics.

I do. Try another browser. I use Firefox. Even though, I see pics using IE 7 as well.

Do you see the text?

I am stupid. I took the car to my mechanic and he said the Cadillac service tech used a "reset switch" to raise the pulldown. But, he didn't know where the switch was. He called the service tech who told him where the hardtop pulldown switch was located behind the driver seat. Doh! Up came the pulldown. I see that the switch is mentioned in the FSM, but it doesn't say where it is. I assumed it was a relay, not a physical switch.

how much did that visit cost?
less than this pamphlet?

I think the switch location is identified in the Owner's Manual.

Remember, I said, "I think."

The visit to resolve that non-problem was free. I left the car for them to address the AC problem and suspension/exhaust rattle. I went through the owners manual section on raising and lowering the soft top and don't remember seeing any mention of the switch. I wouldn't be surprised if it is mentioned in the hardtop section, though, which I didn't look at.
