Yesterday I drove up to my driveway and stopped to open my gate. Not wanting my dog to run out i turn off my car then tied the dog up. I came back then just when the car was about to crank Everything completely shut down. NO power at ALL, nothing worked. Moments later the car retrieved power and i was able to crank up the engine. The next day when i was bout to leave for work it happened again. I had power to unlock the car but once i inserted the key all power was lost and had to wait a few moments.


Any help would be appreciated, also the battery is fairly new, i would say 6months old..

Also i read somewhere on the forum it might be a fail safe mode that the Z goes into.

 

Did i post this at the right place? or should i just move this to GENERAL

 

You check all your connections to your battery? Sounds like a loose wire maybe. Check that then let us know if it continues.

 

The connections seem to be good. I checked everything and they don't seem to be out of place

 

Cases like this are usually battery connections. Wiggle those battery wires violently.

 

seems to be?? ya do what 350 said and get violent with them...make sure they are tight...

usually i see them corrode and get weak.....so check for corrosion as well...

take a wire brush to your battery posts. i had a problem with this as well. also, check your frame ground.
