My windshield wipers do the same thing sometimes and I just tap on the switch otnhit the steering column to get it back right. I have never taken the steering column cover off to see if it is something that I can take apart to clean or if it just has to be replaced.

The fuel filter is mounted under the Tahoe on the driver side. It should be a silver color (depending on how dirty it is) and has a nut on both sides to be able to disconnect it. Best bet would be to go ahead and replace it.

YouTube is best bet to learn how to use multimeter.
I will try to find one that is a good example and post link.

For the amp, the large power wire should go to battery witha fuse inline close to the battery, the small (usually blue) wire should only get power when the radio is turned on.

Stay the hell away from ac current in your house. Doing it wrong can kill you.

The fuel gauge is probably an open circuit or bad float/sender in the tank. Way past full indicates an open circuit in the fuel gauge wire.

The wipers is a bad park switch. You will most likely need a new wiper board, but you may be able to pull the board, clean the contacts, and regrease them. When it doesn't sense the wipers going to the stop/park position, they'll judt keep running until power is cut. Wiper boards are a common failure item, there may still be a recall on it as 95 got recalled.

As to installing an amplifier, you should run your radio outputs straight from the radio to your amplifiers input. 4 door yukons, trucks, and suburbans already have a factory installed amplifier, and the amplified input going into your amp can overdrive the input, and burn the amp.
