I am 76 and quite good at diy so am perplexed.
First, check the plug end test/reset. Plug in the cord to an outlet and press the TEST button. You may, or may not hear a 'click'. Press the RESET button, and it should hold itself in the down position. If that happens, then things are ok there. If not, the overload protection is not working and would need to be replaced.
Second, did you use a pump flush/lube? When the pump is used, it creates a lot of heat. When that happens, water carries away the lubrication, moving parts can gall, the seals dry, and the motor can't overcome the drag at start. This could 'pop' the GFI on the electrical plug on your machine. Letting the machine sit allows the heat buildup to evaporate the water in the pump, and scale forms, especially if you use almost any kind of soap or detergent. Don't use soap/detergent with any of the high pressure nozzles, always use the low pressure attachment. Flush the pump, then use the high pressure attachment.
One more thing, check the pressure hoses going to the pressure switch, and the switch itself. When you release the trigger on your handle grip, the motor shuts off with the pressure buildup. If it will not open again, the diaphragm switch could be stuck.
I hope this helps you, and much luck to you.

First check to make sure all the harness plugs on the PCM are pushed in and tight. It happened to me.
Then check your grounds.
And you need to get that multi switch replaced to fix that fog light problem. Just remember to take the relay off of the old one and replace it on the new one.

Try checking the power switch. When i had to replace mine, the passenger window quit working too. but once replaced both were fine. You usually have to go to the Chevy dealership. It cost me $125.

sounds like an ignition coil has an open internally, its easy to replace. I am figuring its a regular 3.0 .

Welcome to FIxYa.com
Check for a drain remove the positive side battery connect a test light clamp end to the battery wire and the pointed end to battery post light will be on. Pull one fuse at a time. When test light :light goes out that is the circuit draining the battery

David, the reset and test buttons should be on the plug end of the electrical cable.
