2012 GMC Canyon Questions & Answers
My GMC Canyon won't start with neew battery, Next Day or week it will not start?
When battery voltage is lost, sometimes there are some modules that may need to be reprogrammed? It could effect your security system, where applicable. I don't know model year?
If it cranks good but won't start, make sure battery has a full charge. Have a helper crank it while you check for spark at the plugs. Also, check proper fuel pressure and fuel injector pulse. Find out what your missing, if anything?

08 canyon, keeps blowing 15 amp ign fuse
What is engine liter size? Does it blow with key on or do you have to start it? Most of the circuits for that fuse goes to ignition coils, coil on plug ignition. Could be a faulty coil or shorted wiring circuit, somewhere?
There was one other circuit, seems to go to control side of ac compressor relay, just for testing, you could unplug the relay, I doubt we'll get that lucky?
With key off, unplug ignition coil do an ohms test on coil primary terminals, I'm not talking about the wiring harness connector, the coil, itself. Look for the readings to be close to the same, if one is way different than the others, that coil could be faulty? Any applicable trouble codes?
What would cause the fault

My blend door will not open.
Either your actuator got stuck or has gone bad. Or your divider on the dash could be the problem. I would take it off the actuator before messing with the dash. And see if you can spin by hand or turn it. Unlock it and hope it is just stuck. Noemally I remove them then in my hand I connect the conector and turn the key on and turn my divider on the dash and see if it turns after I manually make it turn. If it works cool it could have been stuck. Good luck.
My blend door will not function on my 2005 gmc canyon.
Looks like you might have to manually and disconnect the rod and turn it yourself or just unplug it and try to spin it by hand. If you cannot turn by hand then remove the bolts and turn it by hand then reinstall and see if it works. They do get stuck something or it just might be your switch climate divider on the dash. Good luck
