04 Envoy issues

[gmtech1]

I thought you had a appt. with a GMC service center. What happened with that?

They have not been responsive...still working on it. I requested an appointment this past Monday and explained the issue and then heard nothing back

To follow-up:

I took the truck to the service center and it ended up being the wiper motor module was shorted. They had to replace the wiper motor, about $400. It's the same issue the previous year (2003) was recalled for...obviously not fixed for 2004 models, yet no recall...pity.

"CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES HAVE WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEMS THAT WILL NOT TURN ON, CEASE OPERATION WHILE IN USE, FAIL TO TURN OFF/ON BY THEMSELVES (MOISTURE SENSITIVE WIPER SYSTEM), OR HAVE CONTINUOUS WINDSHIELD WASHER PUMP OPERATION BECAUSE THE PRESENCE OF WATER WITHIN THE WIPER MODULES CAN EITHER CAUSE A SHORT CIRCUIT OR CAN LEAD TO THE CORROSION OF COMPONENTS WITHIN THE MODULE."

For the dashlight LEDs, I ordered a kit to put new LEDs in. I also watch a video which showed how to take the instrument cluster out (which is surprisingly easier than I thought)...so my plan is to replace the burned out lights...kut was $18

For the blower motor, I have to take a closer look, but I need to determine if I need to replace the connector or the resistor myself...luckily this is easy to get to under the glve compartment...I'm not sure how to determine which part needs to be replaces...both run around $30...I'd rather buy one than both

Anyway thanks for the advice all...any further advice is much appreciated

If the plug is not burnt then the connector is ok, the relays were bad in a lot of the TB's
