Congrats - I've had mine for 6 years without a problem (except the power antenna I disconnected). Being a used car you never can tell how long it will last or what issues you may have - you'll discover any weaknesses during the 1st year. Keep in mind it is a rear wheel drive - so you need to grease the front wheel bearings whenever you replace the front breaks. Also, if it’s icy out I highly recommend being very careful and turn off the traction control via the button in the glove box. It does OK in snow, but my experience is that the traction control causes the power to shift to the wheel with traction - then when that wheel hit’s the ice the 5800 lb. car is out of balance and the backend slowly comes around and it‘s tough to correct it. Turning off the traction control helps a lot, but it is still a rear wheel drive.

1990 Fleetwood interior replacement part needed by panda6

I'm looking for a replacement part for my beautiful like-new 1990 Cadillac Fleetwood rear wheel drive. I need the locking unit for the passenger-side glove compartment - mine got broken by a passenger and I now need to use unsightly tape to hold the glove compartment lid closed. The interior of the car is maroon color. Can anyone please help me find this part I need?
Many thanks in advance for any help offered.

48? That's a code for low AC refrigerant.

no, no such generic code. Besides, this 48 is displayed in your climate control.

I own a 96 fltwd brghm with only 35000 mi. while driving the car it sometimes just dies out. It will restart after a few minutes or after being parked wont start again. Few days later it starts. Ive already replaced distrb and cap, wires, plugs, fuel filter. Ignition coil? and could someone tell me where that is located?

See if any codes are stored in the computer. If not, it could mean it is a component that does not generate codes, such as a fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, or fuel filter or fuel pump relay.

I have a 96 fleetwood brghm with less than 35000 and now im having problems with it starting, I was told it sounded like the ignition module. Can anyone tell me where it's located? So I can test it with a volt meter

The Ignition Control Module (ICM) is located on the left front cylinder head directly above the ignition coil.
