| Description of the problem | While driving home last night during a snow storm at approx. 50 mph the engine stalled and the lights started going on and off. Thankfully i was able to make it to the highway shoulder and stop. I attempted to restart the engine but it would not (the light continued to flicker on and off sporadically, they finally stopped after i turned the emergency flashers on. I tried to restart the engine and it started but the lights started their on and off dance again so i went through the process of shutting it off and managed to get the light to stop by turning the emergency flashers off then on again. After approx. 15 to 20 minute i tried a restart and it started with no symptom's so i was able to drive home with no further incident. |
