Intermittent surge, battery, abs light flickers.

[Slade901]

On my 1997 Mercury Sable 3.0L V6, I have an intermittent surge, battery, abs light flickers.

If you have these problems where the the battery will flicker for a seconds and then you get a intermittent surge as if the engine is going to die and the ABS lights will come on for no reason.

This is a dangerous situation where you are cruising at high speed and suddenly you are loosing power as if the brakes is suddenly applied because the ABS will come on and the engine seems to surge.

I have this problem for a long time and I have replaced the Alternator which fixed it for a while only to come back a few weeks later.

I have replaced the interior lamp relay, driver unlock relay, battery saver relay and I thought it fixed the problem but a month later the same problem came back. I swapped around the driver window relay, accessory delay relay, rear defrost relay and it did not fix the problem.

Only when I replaced the Accessory Delay Relay fixed the problem.
