i found something out about the cady codes today,the computer system in these cars are tied togather,now what i mean is if it puts out one code it will throw out many codes for many other thing that throws you off,and can be as little as couple of pin in the pcm plug.I will share more info as i get it.

In regards to the scanner; it is built in to the car, you just need to know how to use it.

This STICKY would be great if it actually had a link to a list of the codes.

Hi,

Sir, I just bought a 2007 Cadillac CTS on Saturday with 95,000 miles on it. Two days later, I had gotten a check engine light, so I went to get an OBD check.

I had received these codes: U1016, P0017, P008, C0047, C0052, C0781, and C0561. I also bought a Wynn's Deluxe Warranty when I bought this vehicle.

But, based on the codes, how much could I be looking at in repairs? Could I still be screwed even with this warranty and all? Your help and expertise in this matter would greatly be appreciated.
