Factory grounds?

I'm having all sorts of weirdness with electrical on my '72 Blazer. I need to check the grounds, and I was wondering if there were set locations from the factory? I thought it might make it easier if I knew where to look.

Re: Factory grounds?

Anything electrical needs a path for power and to back to the battery (ground).

Thank you! I was kinda familiar with where they were on a truck, just didn't know how different they were on the Blazers.

Re: Factory grounds?

You could always add more grounds.
I have this thread saved for one of my references.
It is for trucks but it may help you.
