Ok guys.... So here is what I have....

2000 Blazer 4door 4x4

Starts and idles perfect until....... I shift into reverse or drive. Then she shuts down. Once she shuts down she won't start back up, no click, no nothing....

I go to the starter relay and get a positive charge on the grounded terminal.

After checking the wiring diagram I see that the steering column shift lever actuator has the same grounding point....G117.

My question is, has anyone had one of these fail and is it possible that this is my fail point? I know how much fun electrical issues are, and I'm trying to collect info before tearing completely through the wiring which might not even be the problem if it is a component issue.....

Thank you for any and all help.....

 

I see many of you have looked at this....any help is appreciated. In addition to the question above, what exactly does the steering column shift level do electronically? Does anyone know how it could fail internally?
