kirkton,

It is possible that a fuse may have blown. Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size and rating.

Please review your owner's manual to find the proper fuse(s). This information is available on pages 6-71 through 6-79.

A digital copy of the manual is available at: gmownercenter.com
The Owner Center offers digital copies of the manual, storage for your service records, dealer appointment scheduling and more! It is free to join!

If this is not the cause of the problem, I encourage you to take the vehicle in for an inspection. A certified technician will be able to offer a more accurate diagnosis after a physical inspection.

Please keep us posted! If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me.
