no power

I have a 94 with 4 banger. the car died no pwer at all. once in a while you get dome light and dash ligths but they cut right back out and there is no power at all. the car ran good up till this happened any ideas would be good cause I have no clue whats going on with it.

Re: no power

Have you tried jumping the car? It could be a bad alternator.

Re: no power

These cars are ROUGH on alternators. You need to get the battery charged and have the alternator and battery tested asap.

Re: no power

Also, when batteries fail a lot of times they simply die with no warning. If you do not have a charger take it to a parts store (call first) and see if they will charge it for you and test it. If it is OK then get the car to them for an alternator check...like I said Corsicas are rough on alternators. I averaged one every 2.5 yrs on our old 91 model.
