I have same issue. Haven't had time to check it out. Just popped up one day out of nowhere. Please update if you get a diagnosis.


Do you have an aftermarket radio?

I have had this issue also a few months ago. Its the passenger presence sensor under the front passenger seat that was defective. It should be covered under warranty. If not I've heard it can be expensive. Heres a link from cadillac forums. http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums...ag-system.html

Damn....I'm just gonna swap the passenger seat from my totaled V onto this one if it's the same code. I wonder what the heck is going wrong with those sensors and more importantly if it's repairable?

Has anyone out of warranty due to time but not mileage had any luck getting dealer to cover it?

im pretty sure that it is that sensor in the seat... when someoe sits in it it never turns the light in the mirror to on... i was wondering if there was a way to jumper that soit just thinks that there is somone in the seat at all times... i dont plan on having kids anytime soon and if i did i would put them in the back seat anyway... if anyone could help that would be great... i have factory radio
