Not for nothing but, my son called me the other day and said the Blazer won't start. It started up in the morning just fine, he drove it to school. It sat a few hours, he came out and NOTHING. Deader than dead. No click, no nothing. Battery is new. I wiggled the negative cable on the battery and all was right again...SO, check your battery connections, they could have worked loose or some corrosion could have built up in there causing a break in electrical continuity. Good Luck.
