A member since 2009 when we purchased our 2007 XLR V. In 2024 we were fortunate to pick up a 2007 Ron Fellows Edition Z06 (Canadian model). Enjoy going to local car shows with the cars and talking to people about these rare beauties.

I read you were having problems with the tilt wheel after hooking up the xtools d7 scanner. Did you ever resolve the issue? My tilt will only go up half way. It will tilt down and in and out. But not up all the way.

Well I found out why my tilt wheel would not fully go to the up position. There was a error code b2355-17 driver vertical position sensor this caused the seat calibration on the tech2 to not work. It stated "clear codes before calibration" I tried clearing the code but that didn't work. So next I tried moving the driver seat up down back and forward to the fullest. Then I scanned for codes ...there were none.

Next using my xtools d7 in the seat menu, set up seat module. This cause the steering column to move is all positions then returning to the original position. The calibration ended. But the steering column would not move after that procedure. Next using the D7 I went to the steering wheel column menu and performed the column calibration.

That worked. I'm sure the Tech2 would have been faster but i wanted to make find out if the Xtools D7 was making the error instead of fixing the error. It was and it did. So to recap the D7 seat calibration causes the steering wheel tilt/telescope to freeze. The D7 steering wheel column menu/ calibration is the fix.

I'm not for sure. More than likely it wouldn't work since there was a lot of changes from the 04/05 series to the 06 on up even trying to program it with the Tech II

I’m in the Toledo/Detroit area - if you were still in Grosse Isle that would have been perfect haha. Thank you for the offer! I’ll make the investment in a unit ASAP. I can see it’s going to be a must-have for owning this car.

My wife and I lived in the downriver area our whole life until we moved to Florida and we miss the boating from our back yard in Grosse Ile but we don't miss shoveling snow. We have already made two trips back this summer visiting family and friends. Good luck and let me know if I can help.
Do you have:

2. #15813086 - 25840734 - 25979048 roof control Module

Thanks
Dennis,

Contact MickeyTee at XLR.Net regarding the Fuel Level Sender Readings you get on your car. He seems to know something about these being "reversed" on the 06-09 cars.

Mickey good afternoon. You worked on my Xlr late last year in TN. It’s now in Florida and having trouble with my top. “Top not secure” message and will not raise. It’s in the open position. Any recommendation for a shop in Florida that might be able to help or will a Cadillac dealer be able to.?
Hi Everybody
I am a new member looking for an XLR 2009 power steering pump from what I see mickeytee have some How can I buy one from you
Thanks
Dennis, see the thread in this forum...


I think this guy knows a little something. Doesn't answer my question about the "Off" state to the Fuel Pump but it's leading in the right direction.

Rob, I just tried the search function regular and advanced. Is there a problem?
It did not work for me. Is there a new way to search after moving to a new ??????
Rob
Rob
Yes, I know. The website was migrated to a new server over the weekend, and we're trying to iron out some issues. The Tech Support team at the hosting company is looking into the search functionality issue.
Thanks for the notes you entered on the start button replacement in 2015. It is 2023 and I will be going thru the same process and will use your notes as well as the other gentlemen's who was so thorough in his instructions. My local Cadillac dealer didn't want to work on it. I have the 7mm and tape ready. Wish me luck.
