Electric would cut out briefly, especially if running the a/c. Found to be the alternator dropping voltage. This had been happening for a couple years at least. Update: There is a fuse at the battery terminal held in place by a couple of nuts. I discovered one of these to be missing and the other loose shortly after this repair. I secured it in place better than it had been. The car has not dropped its voltage since then, but there is no way to tell if it was the alternator or my small repair. I do strongly suspect it was my repair and I unnecessarily spent a couple hundred dollars, though. |
