2003 Chevy suburban electrical issues

Asked by Elemntlminx Jul 13, 2019 at 01:21 AM about the 2003 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 LS 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2003 Chevy Suburban 1500 lt. 5.3 L engine. There
are a few issues and I suspect they all tie back to electrical.
First my gauges only work in the mornings or after several
hours of non operation. If I drive a short time and turn
ignition off then back on the gauges will not work the rest
of the day or unless not driven a long period. Now when I
hit a bump the gauges will come on, the needles will
fluctuate  it has decreased power, the ac stops blowing
cold. Or it stalls out completely.  Any ideas or suggestions
please?

Thank you for your help. We found a broken ground wire leading from the back of the engine. Thank you again.
