No longer had the owners manual for my 2002 ZR2. Below is a link where it can be downloaded. You'll need adobe 7.0.something. Look for 2.16. You'll find the solution there. No need to break anything. Thanks for all the feedback.

I tried to defrost my windows this morning for about 15 minutes before I realized that it was only blowing freezing cold air. Then I switched it to the heater and it was still just freezing. Any suggestions on where to start with the issue? Maybe something I could try at home before lugging it back into the shop?? Anything? The mornings are freezing now!
Thanks!

if the temp gage is normal at 190-200 then not a stuck open thermostat but could be the fun clogged heater core. Have you changed the dex cool ever - so if temp is OK then but 3' of 5/8 and 3/4 heater hose. Open hood and place a rag and plastic bag to cover the dist and plug wires and then disconnect the 2 heater hoses at the firewall and hold them up so coolant lose is min. Attach the 2 pieces you just got and with a garden hose flush the heater core in both directions till it runs freely - just hold the garden hose to the heater hose with your hand so you do not blow the core out (small radiator in there and they are a piece of junk). After clean reattach the originals run and refill water and you should have heat.
This assumes the controls move so make sure the vac line 5/32" under the hood on the drivers side, intake to reservior, is not rotted out and it Ts off to a plastic line to the controls. Good luck and its 90 here!!

problem is when you drill the hole out before the broken part it bottoms or tops out in the slot on the bracket that opens the window. you have to extend the arm out about 1/2" with 2 pieces of plastic, sloted to the center rise on the part that's left on the motor assy. when glue is dry add a piece of plastic between the 2 plastic parts you added. when dry i bored a 1/4" whole about 1/4" from the end of the broken part and added a 1/4" nylon rod in the hole and glued ( all with instant glue ). leave about 3/8" above the sloted hole in the window slide bracket and you should be good to go. my 2002 blazer broke about a year ago and after the fix so far so good. ron

Finally found a minute to work on this issue. Found the hole at the top edge of the carpet. Poked a tool inside. Seemed to have found the actuator though. As I move it left the sound is familiar and that of the actuator. The lever you are referring, what exactly is it?

Many owners have experienced the same issue. If not for this site I may have spent over $500.00 for the repair. Your actuator still works electronically. The issue is a small piece of plastic at the end of the mechanism. It has broken off and won't do it's job. You'll have to purchase an actuator from the dealer. Mine was about 80.00 CND. The hole you are speaking of does'nt really matter because being broken the actuator won't work mnaually so forget about the hole. You'll have to pull (carefully) the panel back above the hole. Wedge a tool or a block of wood so you can work in there. You will be able to manually unlock the gate. Remove the metal panel on the gate. You'll see the actuator. It is fairly simple to replace. Make sure you have the right tools ie: impact wrench or as you will have to remove about twenty small bolts. Book yourself about two hours to complete this work. Good Luck.

98 blazer No power locks,power mirrors,or rear hatch by nickyp1

I'm still having the same problem as described in the title on my 98 s-10 blazer.Someone suggested that the problem might be a shorted body control module.I know this a fused circuit,that is dedicated to these 3 controls,because the fuse used to blow.After replacing it a couple of times it would work for a day or so.Now the fuse does not blow at all,nor do any of the controls work.
P.S.Can someone please where the body control module is located and how much it might cost.
