Power window switch question
I was wondering how the OEM power window switch emergency/lock/normal switch is SUPPOSED to function. Mine has obviously been monkeyed around with, as the relay is missing and it only works in “emergency” mode, which I have read about here and in the user manual. The question I have, is I can get the switch to engage or “click into” both emergency and lock mode, but the switch won’t click into normal mode, as if you have to hold the switch in place with your hand to keep it in normal mode. I…See More

Turn signal switch problems
Hello all, have a problem with my ‘64 Series 62 where the horn comes on when the headlights are on at the same time as the left turn signal. Thanks to Russ’s advice, I believe I have found the problem in the worn through wire on the switch.i also have a problem where I must hold the right turn signal up/ in position to keep it blinking. I assume this means I need a new switch, but this one is unlike any GM turn signal switch I’ve ever seen. Attached are pictures of the pigtails and the…See More

Thanks for letting me join the club. Picked up this ‘64 Coupe Deville a few months ago out of Beverly MA, the car has few stickers on it from various Cadillac clubs, didn’t know if anyone might recognize it from it’s “Glory days.” Everything seems pretty healthy except for the body and some very Mickey Mouse repairs, was wondering if anyone had any leads on…

64 Power Servo vacuum leak
Posted by Kent Prows on June 27, 2020 at 4:02pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
I finally got around to fixing a leak in my heater core. I decided to check to see if there were any other obvious issues while I had everything torn apart. When I put a vacuum directly (bypassing the transducer) to the power servo it gets to about 10" and then slowly leaks back to zero. The fan will not go to full and the mode door will not open completely. I have read a couple of other posts that said they repaired the power servo leaks. How? Does anyone have one to sell? I just…
