If the light doesn't go out after a couple of days driving, then take it to Autozone and they'll clear it free of charge. Just tell them it's your "Check Engine Light" and they'll use the scanner to erase it.

I don't think they'll go that far. The Caddy dealers as far as I know are the only ones that can clear the stored codes.

YOU CAN GET RID OF THE CODES STARTINT WITH THE WARM AND OFF BUTTON BUT WHY DON'T YOU TRY JUST DISCONNECTING THE POSITIVE CABLE FROM YOUR BATTERY FOR ABOUT FIVE OR SIX MINUTES THEN HOOK IT UP AGAIN!

After holding down on the warmer and off buttons,the computer will open up and start running the various system circuits,it will stop on any trouble code that is currently present for a few seconds and then continue on,until it runs the whole system.
The system will also stop on trouble codes that are history.
Be sure to write down the current number code,so you will be able to look it up,and find which circuit the trouble is in.Once you find the problem and repair it,you will have to clear that code,by either using a code scanner,which you probaly dont have or by disconnecting the positive lead on the battery for five minutes and then reconnecting.If the code comes back again you have not corrected the problem and if it dont come back I would consider your repair a success.You will have to reset certain settings,like the clock and radio settings.To find a list of trouble codes for your caddy,enter in keyword 1997 cadillac Deville trouble codes,ther you will find the code lists.
