2003 CADILLAC ESCALADE Electrical System Problems

WHILE DRIVING I LOST ALL USE OF BRAKES IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON DRIVING 45MPH ON A CITY STREET. WHILE DRIVING THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR SHUT OFF 60MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. ON ANOTHER OCCASION STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND STEERING COLUMN LOCKED UP WHILE TURNING. T/C LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH ON A CITY STREET AND IMMEDIATELY LOST RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL. DASH LIGHTING SYSTEM FLASHES DIFFERENT INDICATOR LIGHTS, DISPLAY RANDOMLY GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING.

MY BLOWER MOTOR IS STAYING ON CONTINUOUSLY AND THE SMELL OF PLASTIC BURNING IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC IT IS A BLOWER MOTOR CONTROL MODULE SHORTAGE FROM THE FACTORY. I HAVE FOUND THIS AS A RECALL ON SOME 2003-2006 CADILLAC ESCALADES BUT MY VIN IS NOT ON THE RECALL THEY SAY IT IS A FIRE HAZARD. I WAS THINKING THAT MINE SHOULD ALSO BE ON THE RECALL LIST.MAYBE THEY MISSED MINE FOR SOME REASON. *TR

AFTER APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR THE TRUCK STARTED RELEASING THE BRAKES ON ITS OWN WHILE DESCENDING A MOUNTAIN AND HAD TO REAPPLY TO ENGAGE FOR BRAKES TO WORK THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES SINCE WE BOUGHT THE TRUCK. ITS WAS INSPECTED AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS BOUGHT AND NOTHING WAS EVER DONE . I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL FOR THIS TO OCCUR AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TRUCK. OTHER ISSUES ARE THE ELECTRICAL IN THE DASH HAS SHORTS AND SOMETIMES THE A/C DOES NOT WORK AND COMES ON BY ITSELF. THE GAUGES ,SPEEDOMETER AND FUEL GAUGE DO NOT WORK ANYMORE AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON . THIS TRUCK WAS PURCHASED WITH ZERO MILES ON IT AND PURCHASED FOR OVER $ 70,000 AND NOW ONLY HAS 103,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

THE BATTERY IN MY ESCALADE HAD BEEN DYING ON ME FOR A WHILE. ONE DAY, MY GAUGES ALL STAYED STUCK AS IF I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I DROVE IT FOR A WHILE UNTIL I WAS TIRED OF JUMP-STARTING IT ALMOST EVERYDAY AND I FINALLY REPLACED THE BATTERY.THE GAUGES ALL STAYED THE SAME. A FEW DAYS WENT BY AND THE BATTERY STARTED TO DIE AGAIN. I REALIZED THAT THIS WAS MORE THAN JUST A BATTERY PROBLEM. I DROVE IT 5 MILES AWAY FROM MY PLACE ON THE FREEWAY AND AS I WAS COMING BACK HOME IT STARTED TO DECELERATE ALL ON IT'S OWN. IT MARKED "SYSTEM STABILITY DISABLED" AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO OVER 25 MPH. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE NOVEMBER AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS. I READ ABOUT A RECALL BUT THIS PROBLEM WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED SINCE 2002 WHEN THE RECALL NOTICE WAS SENT OUT. AS I HAVE READ THE DESCRIPTIONS ON WHAT PEOPLE'S PROBLEMS WITH THIS SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE WAS, I NOTICE THAT IT IS EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY VEHICLE. (BCM RECALL 2002 #02066) . *TR

ON JULY 28TH 2011, MY 2003 CADILLAC ESCALADE AWD WOULD NOT START. IT HAD POWER TO THE SEATS, HORN, LIGHTS, BUT NO POWER TO THE LOCKS, WINDOWS OR RADIO. THEREFORE, I KNEW I DIDN'T NEED A BATTERY JUMP. I CHECK THE INSIDE FUSE PANEL AND NO BLOWN FUSES WERE FOUND. I WENT TO THE FUSE BOX UNDERNEATH THE HOOD AND DISCOVER THE 40AMP IGNITION-B FUSE WAS BLOWN. I INSTALLED ANOTHER 40AMP FUSE AND IT IMMEDIATELY BLEW OUT. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY, INSTALLED ANOTHER FUSE AND THE FUSE BLEW OUT WHEN I RECONNECTED THE BATTERY. I REMOVED THE STARTER, DISCONNECTED THE ALTERNATOR, CRANK SENSOR, OIL LEVEL SENSOR AND BOTH IGNITION COIL PACKS. THE FUSE STILL BLEW OUT WHEN I RECONNECTED THE BATTERY. I RECONNECTED ALL ITEMS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED AND WENT UNDERNEATH DASH-BOARD ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND CHECK ALL THE WIRING HARNESSING AND WIRES. I WENT BACK TO THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD, FLIPPED THE FUSE BOX UP TO SEE THE UNDERSIDE. LOCATED THE WIRE THAT'S CONNECTING TO THE BLOWN FUSE, TRACE WIRE UNDERNEATH THE DASHBOARD TO THE HARNESS NEAR THE STEERING SHAFT. THE CONNECTING WIRING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HARNESS (RED WIRE WITH A WHITE STRIP) WAS SHORTED ON AN EIGHTH INCH METAL BRACKET BOLTED TO THE FIREWALL WITH FOUR NUTS. THIS SAME METAL BRACKET IS UP AGAINST AND POSSIBLY CUTTING INTO THE WIRES ATTACH TO THE WIRE HARNESS NEXT TO THE STEERING SHAFT. I APPLIED ELECTRICAL TAPE TO THE WIRE THAT SHORTED ON THE METAL BRACKET TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. I INSTALLED ANOTHER FUSE AND THE TRUCK STARTED UP. *KB
