Hello everyone, I have a 93 Gs that scared the hell out of me this morning . I was driving to work and I stepped on the brakes and suddenly my dash blinked and all the lights came on (battery, airbag, trac, and all the others) and the car turned off making the steering wheel stiff while i was on a curve (almost crash). Luckily the car turned on again (by itself) so i could managed to turn the steering wheel. Then when i was coming from work same thing happened but this time I had to turned it back on by myself. Any ideas of what the problem might be? Battery, alternator, etc. Thanks


The car is stock (no music, no electric flashy things, no electric mods, nothin)

 

Check tensioner. Might be on the way out. It siezes and causes this issue. Mine did this and it snapped the aux belt

 

How old is your battery? It happened oly once?

 

batterY wouldn't make steering stiff. That means loosing power steering would. But I could be wrong

 

It happened twice going to work and once coming from it.

Well as the car turned off that made it stiff.


Im not working tomorrow so im gonna check everything that may seem abnormal under the hood. Ill let you guys know.

 

Check and clean your main grounding points. Also, have your alternator and battery tested to rule it out.

 

If that doesn't work, I would check under Junction Block 2 (fuse box by the battery) and make sure the bolts are connected to your alternator fuse. Mine went out completely and though the fuse looked good it still needed to be replaced. Good luck!

 

Thanks for the help everyone. I think I found the problem.. The negative terminal wire was so worn out that it was about to brake loose (I didnt noticed ). I replacef the whole terminal and I havent gotten a problem since. Thanks again.
