04 Suburban Z71 start up problems

Asked by littleoats May 22, 2019 at 04:21 PM about the 2004 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 Z71 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Accidently left the sun roof open during deluge. Front interior soaked including carpet, cup holders etc. Result is that engine cranks, starts and then immediately dies. Fuel pump working and plenty of fuel, (even added 3 gallons). When I turn the key to on, the dash gauges come on but gas gauge doesn't go past empty and info bar shows nothing under 'Range'. (not aero, but blank) Also, driver is unknown whereas it was driver 2 b4 the deluxe. Radio now does not work, power locks/windows don't work. Seems all other electrical is in working order. Any thoughts as to why it won't remain running?

Dry it out and hope for the best. If you can put it inside with a heater, fan and all the windows open. After a couple of days things may dry out and start to work again.
