I don't know where to start, or why I am bothering to. Just a goofy thing.
I was driving car all was fine, then started having power cut out and come right back on, again and again. Power door locks going up and down, stereo going on and off, engine wanting to die and then surging back on.
Finally stalled, and I rolled it to a safe spot. Popped hood checked connections for loose wires, checked fuses-nothing. Started car-ran fine, put on turn signal-same problem. Rolled back to old spot called P.O. "May be a loose ground to engine block, happened before" Couldn't find it though. Tried car-sounded like battery was dead.
Called road side assist. I explained problem and said listen! Car started right up! Follows me to garage in case I die again. I make turn signal and it almost dies but keeps going, I go own bumpy road and same old problem-power on and off again until dies.
The garage will look at it Thurs.(this happened 4Feb. 11:00 zulu) They were good enough to give me a loaner. Have never dealt w/ them but have a great reputation, and some very nice cars ! Cardone's in Westbrook Ct..
Any ideas? Ran SUPER until today!
