Parasitic battery drain SolvedSolved

Chevrolet Suburban 2005 Suburban 2500 LT 300000 miles
Battery drains overnight when car turned off. New battery and alternator charging fine. Can a stuck blend door actuator cause the drain ?

Best answer (according to Parasitic battery drain)
Parasitic battery drain from United States a month ago
I put an ammeter in series with negative post on battery and ground lead to engine. I selectively pulled fuses one at a time to see if there was a change in current draw. Then replaced that fuse and went to the next and on and continued until a fuse caused current draw to go to zero. That fuse was labeled INFO. Evidently it powered the system that operated OnStar and Carphone features in this 2005 vehicle. Those features were outdated and no longer functioned but their system remained powered. Removing the fuse permanently stopped the parasitic draw and did not change anything in the vehicle as those systems no longer functioned anyway.

Front HVAC Temperature & Zone Controls Don't Respond

Chevrolet Suburban 2008 Suburban 2500 175000 miles
The AC Compressor went out and we replaced it. Ever since then the temperature and zone controls do not respond on the front control. The fan speed works, the buttons all work, but no zone or temperature adjustment. The rear control works fine. I have tried replacing the control unit in the dash and the blend door and zone actuators. I have no codes, SnapOn scanner does not show any faults, but forcing the actuator positions through the scanner does not work either.

My rear wiper blade, plate light, and driver brake light is out.

My rear wiper blade, plate light, and driver brake light is out. But the turn signal that uses the same light bulb lights it up. Is it a fuse or wiring?

Driver mirror

Chevrolet Suburban 2003 SUV  270000 miles
My driver mirror is not working with my turn signal, all my signals work except my driver mirror I also have power to the power mirrors but the led does not work at all. I had my oem mirrors on that I assumed burnt out but even with these new mirrors the driver side still does not come on the connection from the fuse box to the door controls has power but from the controls to the mirror it does not, but all functions on the door controls work any ideas?

Passenger headlight Blinker Issue

Chevrolet Suburban 2011 1500 LTZ 208000 miles
Passenger headlight blinker works intermittently. The blinker bulb burns when the headlights are activated and when I double lock the car with the fob. When I turn on the blinker, the bulb does not blink. The mirror blinks. The tail blinks. I replaced the bulb. Replaced the headlight wiring harness. Replaced fuses. Cleaned connectors. Cleaned the ground. I know next to nothing about cars. I'm a google mechanic. Please help me with a solution. Also, the front passenger tire pressure sensor has stopped working. I recently had it replaced, so it's very new.

Reverse lights and overhead dome lights are out

Chevrolet Suburban 2005 5.3 4x4 z71 225225 miles
The overhead dome lights would flicker for about a month and now finally will not come on. The door lights come on no problem which leads me to believe it is not a door switch because they come on when any door opens. Ive checked all fuses and none are blown. Is there a relay for the overhead dome lights?
Simultaneously the reverse lights are not working and ive checked those bulbs.
