Has anyone had this happen?????
Today while approaching a stop sign my car died. Would not start back. After 20 mins started but wouldn't stay running, very bad idle. Paid $50 to tow it 4 miles back home. Had youngest son sit in it and turn key on and the fans kept coming on and relays clicking and fan would cut off and everything but no start. I found 2 plugs on the low pressure A/C sensors with wires touching just enough to do this. Seperated wires and car started right up and runs like a dream......Why would this do this? Do these short out the electrical system? I am at a lose here.....Thanks for any input!

I'm not an electrical guy at all, but I do know this...TPI doesn't like low voltage at all....ask me how I know...

Well it just did it again. After leaving key on for a few mins everything starts running as normal and it will start again. I have a 1993 LT1....what is the relay in the passanger front fender well on the back side? It clicks a lot when this is happening?

Make sure you check them cold and check them hot.

No lights at all....did find the negative battery post a little loose, but not much and all lights worked and motor turned over but wouldn't start. Then I could wiggle wiring harness around the a/c blower and it would start. What wires are in this harness??
