And after all this... it did turn out to be a problem on my end.. there was a loose bolt on the alternator that was causing this to happen intermittently...  Thank God... I didnt have $ for a new alternator now anyway... 
So all is well... Thanks for all the replies! |
Yea, it was a mouthful, but it was not meant to be offensive to anybody inolved in the thread, so I hope no offense was taken. I can say on his behalf (the installer) that it gets really annoying having people blame you for stuff that happens to their car because you worked on the audio or alarm system and 99% of the time it was not their fault. Yea, I know you have to get a lot of ID 10 T errors, lol. Anyway, I am glad for you and everybody else that it was an easy fix. Hell, you might want to even call the installer and tell him you figured out the problem and thanks for his time, even if it was only time on the phone. You never know, he could help you ought one day.
peace
