Alrighty, so, I've read a ton of the threads regarding the windshield leak, dripping down onto the GEM, causing the blower to run constantly.
My issue manifested a couple months ago, where the fog lights started working intermittently.
About 3 weeks ago, the blower issue started (blower turns on full blast with key off/engine off).
I parked it in my shop to dry off/out, disconnected the battery.
When I reconnected the battery, the blower issue was gone.
Not wanting to leave things to chance, I disconnected again, and just now finally wrestled the GEM/fusebox out of the truck.
Opened up my GEM, and it's dry as can be, no evidence of water or corrosion.
This leads me to think that maybe water got in the fusebox?
Anyone ever open one of these up? It looks like there's six snap-tabs to pull to cover open, but I'm curious if I'm going to far in this, or if maybe I should just set the fusebox near a heater for a couple days to dry out prior to getting the windshield replaced (and therefore, resealed).
If I go that route, I'd probably just go ahead and replace all of the fuses in the box, just to be safe (I can always save the "old" fuses for later).
Any thoughts?
