No AC and won't shift out of Park!

My AC stopped, fan still blows but the ac light is not on in the cab, nor will the recirculation light come on. On top of that the truck will not shift out of Park and there is no light on that indicates the transimission position. Is it a fuse?

Please help my truck is loaded ready to take the family for holiday on the fourth!

Update 7/5/2016:

The engine threw a CEL it was code P0705.

I followed these directions and cleaned up the contacts, and replaced every fuse above the kick panel.

Near as I can tell, someone at Big O probably spilled brake fluid during the exchange and brake line install. They decided to wash the inside of the engine compartment by the fire wall where the seal is not so great, some moisture found itself down the line and in my kick panel and bam! I had a shitty first day of vacation.

Good News 3 hours and some reading later it cost me only a new OBII scanner and a can of contact cleaner.

Thanks guys for helping out! T.W. rules, if you followed the link you'll see that the stealership wants 2400 to fix this known problem (shitty seal resulting in a new harness) as I am out of warranty.

Anyway again thanks to all that replied. I hope this thread will help someone else. I have a video and pictures of symptoms, the code and what I did I'll post up later.

Hope everyone had a safe and fun Fourth!

Start checking fuses, I guess.

 

Bump for ya

 

I would check fuses first, all that stuff within a confined area of the truck I would also consider a plug getting disconnected.

Have you installed or done anything with the radio or center console or close proximity?

 

They are all good.

Thank you!

No I haven't, but I did have the brakes flushed and new brake lines installed in the front at Big O, yesterday.

If I use the override button the car goes into gear just fine and I can drive it, just no lights indicating the transmission position, and no AC buttons.

So was everything fine before Big O ?

 

Do your brake lights work? Need to apply brakes to shift from park. Wouldn't explain the A/C or dash lights.

Wonder if they disconnected a plug and placed it back on loosely during the brake work allowing it to vibrate off. Check all connections around the brake components under the hood.

I don't have a schematic to isolate a certain common denominator. Just tossing things out

 

The fuses can look good but be bad, is anything else not working that could help narrow it down? Brake lights, headlights, clock, windows, power outlets, etc

 

Airbag red light is on, no turn signals, no hvac working with the exception of the fan.

 

Manuelly can use neutral override to put in gear. It will drive that way.

 

Have you verified fuses? I can't remember if the owner's manual on mine shows which fuse serves what purpose like my old Cavalier's used to...

 

Hmm IG1 has those, but if the headlights work that doesn't make sense

Sorry about your luck, definitely not the weekend for it.

I'm guessing either you have bundle of wires that were not rerouted the right way cut, a large connector unplugged or a relay/fuse issue.

No turn signals leads me to believe no brake lights hence no detection of brake pedal switch allowing gear selection unlock.

I'd definitely be looking into everything the Big O(Big Oops?) did and expect compensation for the service and loss of family time expenses.

 

Wow. Going to start carrying at least one spare 10A fuse.

Ig1 or Ig1 no.2 under the dash

 

Wow, great post.

Certain to be a huge help to someone later.

 

Big O? Sounds more like a strip club than a mechanic.

Probably electrical. May want to disconnect battery and reconnect. Then I'd replace every fuse in the fuse box.

Best advice I've always been given is never do major maintenance right before a long trip. Do it a week or 2 earlier in case something goes wrong. Luckily this happened at home versus somewhere far away from home with the family.

 

IG1 or IG1 NO2 Fuses.

Use a meter to check them or just replace them with known good fuses.

Visual checks are not trustworthy.

 

I did replace them, but it ended up being something else. Thank you for the reply! -Jon

 

Well what was it? Care to share with the rest of the crew?
