Description of the problem | Got out of my car and smelt burning wires i lifted my hood and saw smoke coming out by the alternator. Then i noticed the my battery was dead. I wound up replacing the alternator and battery. The car started and all seemed fine. Later that day my battery light came on and the dash lights all started to come on and go off. I went to the store and on my way home my lights started going off and on the dashboard started to light up again and the radio went off and came on my a/c went off and on. Then my power steering went out and my brakes failed. I almost wrecked. Thankfully i was in my neighborhood and was able to get home without incident. This car definitely has a electrical problem. |
