• Q: How to Replace the Center Console Without RPO Code UV8 on 2002 Cadillac Seville?

  A: To replace the console without rpo code uv8 users should begin by disabling the sir and setting the parking brake. Begin by taking away the storage bins and cd changer followed by the removal of console trim plate and left console trim panel and right console trim panel. The installation process begins with removing shifter cables and park lock cables from the shifter followed by removing the floor storage bin cover and cutting electrical connectors one through three loose from the Center Console. First move your front seats fully backward to access the fasteners which secure both metal bracket arms to the floor. Afterward remove the two fasteners and two nuts which keep the console attached to the Floor Pan and the lower instrument panel (IP). Wear care when lifting the metal brackets as they should never touch the seats. Remove the console by lifting its rear end first and pulling it backward from the vehicle's structure. To install the console assembly first set it on the floor surface then connect power wiring before aligning Center Console front sections with lower ip while fitting rear access to rear studs. Install the 2 fasteners from the Center Console to the lower ip, tightening them to 2 n.m (18 lb in), then install the 2 nuts to the floor studs in the Center Console compartment, tightening them to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Afterward install fasteners into the metal bracket arms on the console at 10 n.m (89 lb in) while connecting electrical connectors (1,2,3) to both console sides. First place the cover on the storage bin floor followed by shifting the park lock cable onto the gear shifter and connecting the Shift Cable to the shifter. Mount both console panels before putting on the console trim plate and storage bins and cd changer units if present and turn on the sir.
