First check fuse if fuse okay see if power going to control switch if yes the sunroof motor could be faulty or in a bind.if no power going to control switch, more likely if fuse good wiring from fuse box to control switch has short or broke ground or poor ground wire.

Crankshaft Position Sensor is a common failure item on Cateras, but is not an expensive repair, for these symptoms.

SOURCE: how do I check the transmission fluid in my 2001

There is no dipstick on the 01 Catera or any Catera for that matter (97 to 01) also same transmission used on 3 series BMWs.

I have 2 - 2001 Cateras....no....dip...stick.

It's a sealed transmission. There are fluid drain plugs, one at side of the tranny and one at the bottom. Jack the car up from the front on a level surface. Place a hose to a funnel and remove the top filler access plug (the side one). Insert the hose here and fill the funnel until fluid leaks out the side hole (make sure you have a catch pan). Then drop the car and let the excess fluid level out from the fill hole. Raise the car again and wipe away the excess fluid and re-install the filler plug.

2001 Cadillac Catera. Several of the dash gauges do not work.

There where many problems with the gauges in this year, pull the cluster out and send it in to be rebuilt.

Cadillac catera 01' odometer and trip meter stopped working at exactly 73,200 miles - everything else in the gauge cluster still works.

this sounds like a bad speedometer cluster, you stated everything else works so i assume the speedometer is working and just the odometer and trip stopped working and so the speedometer will need replacing. good day.

My radio, trunk and fuel door all work sometimes. Where is the Multifunction relay? I believe the part# 90494163 It is a 2000 Catera Cadillac. Thanks

K134 Multifunction relay is under the dash on the driver side. When sitting in driver seat, above your left ankle, it is located behind a cardboard panel. Replacing cures many problems with the Bose radio, sunroof, gas and trunk releases, fog lights.

I recently removed the battery from my 2001 cadillac catera and after that there were problems. The sunroof no longer opens and the car has a low idle and the oil pressure indicator light went on and off....

The sunroof needs to be reprogrammed after changing the battery, but it only takes about one minute to do so. The procedure is listed in the Owner's Manual.

Gas tank won't open, trunk won't open, radio stopped working, left tail lamp won't work

It's the body control module. It's located under the dash to the left of the steering column. I had same problem, went to the junk yard and bought one and the problem went away. Dealer wants $600.00-700.00 for the BCM, I paid $30.00

Cant find fuse boxes

There are 2 screws which hold the large panel right under the steering column. They use a large flat head screwdriver and are 1/4 turn. They are right on the bottom edge of this padded panel. The panel, which your knees should almost touch when sitting in the driver's seat, needs to be lifted up (slide it) after removing the screws as it is keyhole pinned.
The fuses are under there....there are more next to the battery as well.
