you can check all the fuses, however if a fuse blew there is usually a reason why, occasionally a fuse may just give up the ghost for no apparent reason, but I would get back there and pull the paneling off and start checking things with a volt meter without a tool like a tech2 you kind of have to do most things hands on and even the tech2 can only get you so far. there are a ton of youtube video's showing how to get the panels off it only takes about 5 minutes or less to get access to the rear hvac system.
I checked each of the fuses with a multimeter. Not an expert on the multimeter, mind you, but I checked resistance and each fuse had continuity. I am paused at the moment because 1) My Tech2 won't get here until next week and 2) I have to replace the shocks on the hatch so I don't get smushed. Thank you so much for the help, and I'll report back with what I find.

Also, it looks like I am about to get an '04 parts Suburban. It was parked because it wouldn't start, then sat for 3 years. Not sure how I'm going to attack that one, though I am probably gonna grab ammo for theparts cannon and then flip the remains. Thank you all, so much, again!

hmm, no start could be a easy fix and flip the whole thing.

2013 Tahoe rear A/C Heater blower motor not working, update. Mine was not a fuse issue, everything seemed to be working but no air was coming out of the rear vents. I did a couple of videos on the problem that I was having , pretty basic trouble shooting and far from professional video, but it might be helpful for someone. ( Click on the links to open)​

For what it is worth, my issue was due to a wire that had been worn through between the controls and the the rear blower motor. Ultimately, I had a second, 2005 Suburban I used to test parts, one at a time. When I narrowed it down to the wiring, I paid my mechanic to fix it. :cool: Not interested in learning how to chase down wiring continuity; I seriously already knowhow, and I thank God I can afford to have someone else do it. On the flip side, yes, I know that this wiring job would have been easy, but I didn't realize it at the time.

The 2004 Suburban 2500 that doesn't start is due to vandalism and the theft of various parts. I haven't even started looking into that yet.
