Lost power today
While going to the truck stop to get fuel and propane today, Driving along and all of a sudden volt meter goes crazy and i lose power. was on a large one way street so I was able to get her over threw the 4 ways on and tried to start it zip nada, no dash lights no nothing. So sat there a min to try and figure out what happen. two or three min went by and i tried and bingo started. So i figured I would keep going and and get to the truck stop. So i put my left blinker on to enter the freeway and gauges go nutty and volt gauge dip to way low turned off the blinker and bang all back to normal. Long story short I got it home and started trouble shooting. I have read some of the post on the forum about start solenoids and thinking I have a bad one. Any thoughts ? I tested it a couple of times in the driveway and it did the same thing. when I was testing the solenoid I had power to the battery side and none to the other two contacts. So i turned on the key and had power to the small wire and the battery side and no power to the other large bolt. sat there feeling stupid came in had a cup of coffee went back out and bingo it work, So what do you guys think ? Thanks Andy
