While Driving all electic shuts off, then back on real fast.
I am driving and all the suddon all my electric goes off for a split second then kicks back on. I only notice this at night when all my lights are on. It also sometimes has no "juice" when i turn the key. No lights come on or anything. I turn the key back and try again and then it will work. That leads me to assume that it is the ignition switch, but why would that cause my whole electrical system to shut off for a split second while driving? Thanks for the help

Re: While Driving all electic shuts off, then back on real fast.
I would first check the battery and all the connections...(have the battery tested)
When posting a question, please tell us the year,make and model of your vehicle along with the engine size...this will help in getting some more specific answers. Depending on what year your truck is, there were some problems with ignition switches causing all kinds of problems.

It's also a possibility that it's the battery connectors aren't tightened correctly. I had the same problem, but it never happened again when I tightened the battery connectors. And make sure it's real tight. You may think it's securely connected, but you have to really tighten it to ensure that it will work. Good luck.
