Chances are the alternator is failing and needs to be replaced soon. If there is an Auto Zone around your area or you have a volt meter, with the engine running. Place the volt meter to the battery and you should get a reading of 13.5 to 14.5 volts. With the engine not running, the battery fully charged should read 12.5 volts. If you have less then 13.5 volts on the battery with the engine running, chances are the alternator has gone bad. The other thing to look for is a blown fuse or broken wire at the alternator, such as thew ignition wire to the alternator.
The alternator does come out from the top. You need to loosen the motor mount and rock the engine forward and secure it. Then removed the windshield wiper module cover, and you should have access to get it out.
I recommend for safety reasons, if you are not a experienced mechanic that you take the van somewhere for that service. When it comes to rocking engines and securing them, you are better off having a professional doing it for you.
Good luck

sounds like a short in wire to tail light, remove tail light and check ground first, if still problem then use wire probe and traces wires until u find problem

take a copy of your title to a chevy dealer they can use the vin to make you a new key and require the title as proof of legal ownership. this can be kind of pricey. also if the tumbler has a number on it usually 3 digits but can be 4, most lock smiths can use that number and your cars model and year to make a new key. if it has a rf chip in it, or you want your power locks button back the dealer is the only real option. places like best buy who install power locks may be able to code a new remote but it probably wont be much cheaper than the dealer.

check linkage on top of transmission and make sure it moves while engaging shift lever. You may have also left a light on while doing work on van, check all interior lights that may still be on.

Wheel bearings are about 90-140 dollars depending on the brand you get whether Delco or other OEM. Make sure though that the wheel bearings you get are for the right spec of venture as they differ as to whether they are for rear and front wheels, whether yours is Front Wheel Drive or all wheel drive, with ABS or No ABS. I get mine from Rockauto. Their catalogue on-line lists all the different specs.
