#767986 |
ALL ELECTRICAL POWER HAS BEEN SHUT OFF TO VEHICLE ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASSIONS. THE FIRST TIME WAS WHILE ENTERING A RIGHT TURN LANE AT A SLOW SPEED. ALL POWER EQUIPMENT FAILED...NO POWER BRAKES, NO POWER STEERING, ETC. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE WITHOUT DIFFICULTY AFTER TURNING THE IGNITION OFF (WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL) AND STARTING IN A NORMAL FASHION. THIS FAILURE MODE AND RESOLUTION IS TYPICAL. THE SECOND TIME, I WAS TURNING LEFT ACROSS A FAIRLY BUSY INTERSECTION. FORTUNATELY, I HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO CONTINUE WITHOUT BEING HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE THIRD TIME WAS IN AN ENCLOSED PARKING LOT AS I MADE A SLOW RIGHT TURN TO GO UP A RAMP. THE FOURTH TIME, AND THIS ONE WAS UNUSUAL, I WAS TRAVELLING ABOUT 45 MPH WHEN ALL THE FAILURE LIGHTS CAME ON FOR ABOUT 1 SEC. FORTUNATELY, THE POWER CAME ON BY ITSELF. IMAGINE THE CONSEQUENCES...
