Cranks--no start & no dash lights--97 Blazerwwwildman 03-16-2011, 08:31 PM My sons 97 Blazer, 2x4, 4.3L V6 would not start today. He says last night it started but all the dash lights did not come on before it started. A couple of days ago, it took three tries to get it to start. Today, it would turn over but not start so I took a look at it. edited: I did check the battery and all fuses. All were good. When I turned the key the following is what happened: 1) the dash lights did not come on (including the MIL) 2) the fuel pump did not come on 3) motor would turn over (fast) so battery & starter are not issue 4) would not start (either no spark or no fuel) I am thinking the ignition switch needs to be replaced. What do you folks think?? Mike viggy58 03-16-2011, 08:54 PM i'd start with the ign switch, if you're sure all fuses are good. def shows the symptoms of a bad ign switch, and they are certainly know to go bad on the 97's. let us know how it goes! brcidd 03-16-2011, 09:09 PM Put a test light on your coil pink wire-it should be lit in "run" and in "start" - to prove out you need an ignition switch.
