Car shuts off and turns back on

As the title says my car keeps turning off and turning back on by it self randomly while i am driving. Today on my way home from school it did it 3 times. WTF is going on. I am getting the alternator tested today and the belt is still there. Battery is brand new.

Thanks

Re: Car shuts off and turns back on

Check your plugs/wires for insulation cracks. One or more of your plug wires may be grounding out before it gets into cylinder/to the spark plug.

Mine did something of the sort...auto relay sensor or something like that...then on to the new computer for it...Its ran like a charm ever since.

Re: Car shuts off and turns back on

Well I have not get the alternator tested yet but I think it is the problem.

Sometimes randomly the battery light will come on. The radio will turn off and turn back on, sometime under heavy acceleration the speakers will pop. My gauges flicker and the headlights dim sometimes.

I think it is the alternator.. but I am not sure.
