Spyder 9962776 Front Active Grille Shutter with Motor - OE 84097277

The Spyder 9962776 is an aftermarket replacement front active grille shutter assembly with integrated motor, designed as a direct-fit replacement for the OEM part number 84097277. This assembly restores the factory-equipped active aerodynamic shutter system found on the 2016–2019 Cadillac CTS Sedan (excluding CTS-V models).

The active grille shutter system is a motorized assembly mounted behind the front fascia that automatically opens and closes a series of louvers to manage airflow through the front grille. The onboard ECM monitors real-time conditions — including vehicle speed, engine load, coolant temperature, A/C compressor state, and ambient temperature — to determine the optimal shutter position at any given moment. Shutters remain closed when cooling demand is low to reduce aerodynamic drag and improve fuel efficiency. They open when the engine requires additional cooling airflow, such as during heavy loads, towing, or sustained highway driving.

Key Features:

• Direct replacement for OEM part number 84097277
• Includes integrated actuator motor for plug-and-play installation
• Restores proper aerodynamic and thermal management function
• Resolves active grille shutter fault codes (P059F, U0284) caused by a failed or damaged assembly
• Designed to match OEM fit and function for the 2016–2019 Cadillac CTS Sedan (without CTS-V)
• Aftermarket replacement — not a GM OEM part

A failed active grille shutter assembly can trigger a check engine light and reduce both fuel economy and engine cooling efficiency. Replacing the complete assembly with motor ensures the LIN Bus communication between the ECM and the actuator is properly restored.
