i have a 2005 3.5l colorado and i am having problems with the ac and blower motor. if i pull out the hvac and test it with a test light, i have no ground working. so if i ground it out manually the blower works just fine. so i need help to find out where that ground point is. the other issue with the ac is it keeps blowing fuses. it is fine until i start the car but just leaving the key on doesnt hurt anything. i hooked up a test light to the fuse box. it grounds out one side when i start the car. please help.

The main ground fore the HVAC is under the hood behind the air filter. The wire grounds to the fender area, then is runs through a splice pack to ground various loads. The ground is g106, and the splice pack is sp106 in the diagram below.

From there, the wire goes inside the truck to a connector in the passenger side kick panel. Is is a 22 pin light gray connector and is labelled as c201 in the diagram.

The fuse issue is probably caused by the poor ground, so I would fix that first and see if the problem with the fuse goes away.
