What in the world will cause "everything" to go dead? Car runs fine...can just be cruising along and all of a sudden the dash goes black and the engine dies. As quick as it died, the lights come back on and I crank it right back up. First time it happened at a stop light just idling. A few more times cruising from light to light over the next week. Twice while cruising at hwy speeds last week. I just had it serviced at the dealer...full diagonistic...no problems! I'm guessing a bad ground somewhere...but where??? Maybe bad coil? Lavon
Check your ground wire that runs from the battery to the block. Sounds like it could be the culprit. Tim
oh oh oh, I just dealt with this problem. Next time it happens, SLAP the.....relay?....little box thing that is a bit past the starter relay positive post downwire about 2 inches from the bundle of wires on the yellow wire. It is a little silver box that is some kind of circuit breaker. It pops and EVERYTHING goes out just like a disconnected battery cable. Lemme guess, you disconnect the battery and reconnect and everything is cool all of a sudden. I cut that piece of crap out and no problems ever since. Whack this thing and all the power comes back on. Whack it again and power goes out. I cannot discern the purpose of this item.
