Check the connectors at the alternator and those wires. Basically check your grounds, battery terminals and the connections that lead to/from.

 

well a couple days ago the car had a melt down driving home. car shut off headlights flashed on and off about ten times while i was coasting. Put it back in neutral and started it up. Its been running perfect ever since

 

Then i go out this morning and it cranks over once and everything goes dead. It dings when i put the key in then turn and nothing. No lights on dash, headlights, horn, wipers nothing works at all. only things that work is interior lights, trunk opener, and dinger when the key goes in. Checked ignition and oms are perfect. Did not see any bad wires or grounds.

 

I need help asap

 

will jumping the car help? could be dead cells in battery?

again did you check the ground wires at the starter, alt, open the box to the pcm and make sure everything is secure

 

checked battery twice all is good. unhooked pcm everything looks clean. going to check starter again but shouldnt the lights and stuff still work if the starter isnt?

 

there are power cables the run at teh start.... if one is loose could cause a power issue... when you say checked battery... did you have it checked for cranking amps? or just a voltage test? i have seen some batteries show 13+ volts but still had a dead cell and not enough cranking amps.


it sounds like the issue is with the entire power system for the car... check your main fuses for corrosion basically start at the battery and run thru the bigger thicker wires then to the 10/12 gauge wires for the ignition and other stuff.

 

ok fixed it for the time being. touched a screw driver from pos. to neg. (welding lol) on starter and everything is working as it should again. too weird

 

Sounds like you might have a battery issue

I had my battery tested and it passed, yet I had somewhat similar issues. Replaced the battery and was good to go. Hopefully you get the issue taken care of easily

 

well car shutdown again! had to shift it manually yesterday. then this morning go and start it and a least 2 cyl. are missing fire. then turned on headlights to limp it to work and the car dies. Same thing as before. no power to anything. tried jumping it. didnt change anything. cant find anything wrong. I think its time for the bone yard
