Help! Tonneau sensor and water drain tube

[CathyMorrisette]

Hello everyone!! I bought a 2008 XLR with 59k miles about six weeks ago. LOVE it - I didn't know you can feel this way about a car!!


I am having a problem with the convertible top getting stuck going up and down. Where it is getting stuck at seems to be around the tonneau. Where exactly is the tonneau sensor?

Also, I've read there is a drain tube that gets clogged and should be cleaned out periodically. When hurricane Florence came thru, my floor board on the front driver side was wet. The trunk was also wet. Where is this drain tube I've read about?

I am taking it to the Cadillac dealer Monday for a oil change and will ask the mechanic to look at the top, but wanted to find out as much as I can on my own. Thanks for any information you fine folks can provide!!

Not sure about sensors but the drain tube is in the bottom of the left side of the trunk where the pump for the retractable top is located. Keeps water or any other fluids from building up and causing damage to the pump.
