not really know the sierra's but have a look around the battery area for the main fuse box & there is a fuseable link that runs off the battery that can cause issues.

See the green wire near the + terminal? It is a fuse-able link wire. If that is faulty it stop all electrics. Mine burnt out so I replaced it with a 30 amp water proof blade fuse. Pssst the brake fluid is way low too.

I can be of no assistance, as mine has a fuse box right where your relay is (different year)
but sounds like greater knowledge than mine is helping you
Keep  it will all work out

I would have thought you'd want a bit more than 30 amps in there...

you ned a new alternator, smoking belt and blown fusible link are sure signs of it
make sure you get a new fusible link from an auto lecky too, without that your current fault would cause the car to catch fire!!

hey man,
oh really a dead alternator could do that? i will remove the belt itself tomorrow and see if the alternator is seized or not spinning freely.
thanks for the info
