Angry 2001 chev siverado heater, wipers, radio, odometer dont work and changed the ign. switch

all of the above, heater, odometer(digital), radio, wipers and the temp gauge quit working. Thinking ignition switch so I changed and no help. Open to ideas... Maybe a ground somewhere and the location. Pictures will help alot! It is a 2001 silverado with a 4.6 and niothing special as far as the electric windows etc.. I am working on this in my garage at home on my spare time but getting frustrated with it. Thanks

I looked at my 2000 alldata and a ground is under the seat close to wiring connector. Another one is at the back of the motor close to top of transmission. Check for a blown fuse.

Re: 2001 chev siverado heater, wipers, radio, odometer dont work and changed the ign. switch

I have looked and tested ALL fuses. I on the other hand did find a broken black wire under the floor mat when looking at different spots. Could this be the culprit? Just a small black wire? It does have a ground block then under the driver side of the seat then right? I will check and let you know. THX...

with the vehicle running measure [both sides]the fuse voltages on whats not working ,with all that if good then . if these have voltage then the grounds need checking.

also what engine is this V8 or the V6 ?

these circuits are not common electrically , so I would think that this vehicle was messed with .. how long you owned it/any aftermarket crap on this ?

on the rear of engine back of intake manifold area is a ground connection G103 make sure is solid and clean.

For $26.95 you can get a 1 year subscription to AllData DIY. It's the same as having factory manuals.

not sure if they did it in the trucks, but in the 01 cars, there is a BCM. Body Control Module. it should be under the dash on the drivers side. it is something that only a dealer can redo. when replacing it, the dealer has to reprograms the BCM. they are a program once only module. it controls radio, heater, windows, door locks, wipers, lights, anything that is considered part of the body system.
