Make sure you have a good battery / connection at the terminals. Rid of any corrosion on them as well. You can try to look for problems in your fuse box also. Other than that, I have never had this problem before "on a blazer". Check out the search button on the forum's main page. I'm sure there is a thread there that will help you find your problem. Good Luck!

I've read somewhere that the rear VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) could be the issue, at least from what I remember the symptoms sound quite similar.
