brake sensor CADILLAC STS V 2007 1.G Owners Manual

Twilight Sentinel®
Twilight Sentinel®can turn your lamps on and off
for you.
A light sensor on top of the instrument panel
makes the Twilight Sentinel
®work, so be sure it is
not covered.With Twilight Sentinel
®the following will happen:
When it is dark enough outside, the front
turn signal lamps (DRL) will go off, and
the headlamps and parking lamps will come
on. The other lamps that come on with
headlamps will also come on.
When it is bright enough outside, the
headlamps will go off, and the front turn signal
lamps (DRL) will come on, as long as the
exterior lamp switch is in the off position.
If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system will come on
immediately. Once you leave the garage, it will
take about one minute for the automatic headlamp
system to change to DRL if it is light outside.
During that delay, the instrument panel cluster
might not be as bright as usual. Make sure
the instrument panel brightness control is in full
bright position. SeeInstrument Panel Brightness
on page 220for more information.
You can idle the vehicle with the lamps off, even
when it is dark outside. First set the parking
brake while the ignition is in OFF/ACCESSORY.
Then start the vehicle. The lamps will stay off until
the parking brake is released.

When the System Does Not Seem to Work
Properly
The light may ash red when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R), if the ultrasonic sensors are not
kept clean. So be sure to keep your rear bumper
free of mud, dirt, snow, ice and slush. Other
conditions that may affect system performance
include things like the vibrations from a jackhammer
or the compression of air brakes on a very large
truck. If after cleaning the rear bumper and then
driving forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h), the
display continues to ash red, see your dealer.
If a trailer was attached to your vehicle, or a
bicycle or an object was hanging out of your trunk
during your last drive cycle, the light may also
ash red. The light will continue to ash whenever
in REVERSE (R) until your vehicle is driven
forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h) without any
obstructions behind the vehicle.
For cleaning instructions, seeWashing Your
Vehicle on page 480.
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
Your vehicle is equipped with accessory power
outlets. The outlets can be used to plug in
electrical equipment such as a cellular telephone,
CB radio, etc.
Your vehicle has one outlet in front of the center
console, one in the center console lid and
there may be an additional outlet in the rear of the
center console.
Your vehicle may have a small cap that must be
removed to access the accessory power outlet. If it
does, when not using the outlet be sure to cover
it with the protective cap.
Notice:Leaving electrical equipment plugged
in for an extended period of time while the
vehicle is off will drain the battery. Power is
always supplied to the outlets. Always unplug
electrical equipment when not in use and
do not plug in equipment that exceeds
the maximum 20 ampere rating.

PRESS START AND BRAKE TO
START ENGINE
This message displays when you need to press
down on the brake pedal while pressing the
start button on the electronic keyless ignition when
trying to start your vehicle. SeeStarting the
Engine on page 113for more information.
RADAR CRUISE NOT READY
This message displays when the Adaptive Cruise
Control system will not activate due to a
temporary condition. Your vehicle does not require
service. This message also displays when
either of the following conditions occur:
The driver turns off the head-up display (HUD)
while the Adaptive Cruise Control is engaged.
The driver attempts to engage the Adaptive
Cruise Control while the HUD is off.
If this message appears when you attempt to
activate the system, continue driving for several
minutes and then try activating the system again.
RIGHT REAR DOOR AJAR
This symbol appears
with this message.
This message displays if the passenger’s side rear
door was not closed completely. Make sure that
the door is closed completely.
SERVICE AC (Air Conditioning)
SYSTEM
This message displays when the electronic sensors
that control the air conditioning and heating
systems are no longer working. Have the climate
control system serviced by your dealer if you notice
a drop in heating and air conditioning efficiency.

Competitive Driving Mode (STS-V)
The driver can select this optional handling mode
by pressing the Traction Control button, located
near the shift lever, twice within ve seconds.
Competitive driving mode allows the driver to have
control of the power applied to the rear wheels,
while the StabiliTrak
®system helps steer the
vehicle by selective brake application. In
competitive mode, the levels at which StabiliTrak
®
is engaged have been modied to better suit a
performance driving environment. When the
traction control warning light is on, the Traction
Control System will not be operating. Adjust your
driving accordingly.
When you press the Traction Control button again,
the Traction Control System will be on. The
traction engaged symbol will be displayed
temporarily in the DIC and a chime will be heard.
SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on page 264
for more information.
Magnetic Ride Control
Your vehicle may have Magnetic Ride Control that
automatically adjusts the ride of your vehicle.
Automatic ride control is achieved through
a computer used to control and monitor the
suspension system. The controller receives input
from various sensors to determine the proper
system response. If the controller detects a
problem within the system, the DIC will display a
SERVICE SUSPENSION SYS message. See
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 264
for more information. See your dealer for service.
Limited-Slip Rear Axle
Your limited-slip rear axle can give you additional
traction on snow, mud, ice, sand or gravel. It
works like a standard axle most of the time, but
when one of the rear wheels has no traction
and the other does, this feature will allow
the wheel with traction to move the vehicle.
325

TPMS Sensor Identication Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication
code. Any time you replace one or more of
the TPMS sensors or rotate your vehicle’s tires,
the identication codes will need to be matched to
the new tire/wheel position. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions in the following
order: driver side front tire, passenger side front
tire, passenger side rear tire, and driver side
rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool. See your
GM dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. When increasing the tire’s
pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall. If
using this method to match TPMS sensors, the
complete procedure outlined below must be
performed within 15 minutes of the vehicle being
stationary.You will have one minute to match the rst
tire/wheel position, and ve minutes overall, to
match all four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer
than one minute to match the rst tire and
wheel, or more than ve minutes to match all
four tire/wheel positions, the matching process
stops and you will need to start over.
The TPM matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Press the push-button ignition switch to Acc.
(Off/Accessory).
3. Using the Keyless Access transmitter, lock
and unlock the vehicle’s doors.
4. Press the lock and unlock buttons, at the
same time, on the Keyless Access
transmitter. A single horn chirp will sound,
indicating that the TPMS is ready, and
the sensor matching process can begin.
5. Start with the driver’s side front tire.

The underhood fuse block is located in the front of
the engine compartment on the passenger’s
side of the vehicle. SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 373for more information
on location and removal procedure for the front
compartment underhood sights shields.
To access the fuses, push in the tabs located on
each side of the fuse block cover, then lift the
cover off.
