2G Electric problems out of the blue.

[Dan Rittner]

Hi guys, roday I got my car and the power window, locks, radio and even interior lights were not working. It was night time so a turned the headlights on, then everything came back to life. However, if turn the ac on, everything die again.

It was raining, but nothing abnormal. I will need to travel with the car so I wont be able to take it to a shop. Did anyone have the same issue?
Or what should check myself?

Btw the car is 98 eclipse gst.

Thanks

Start by checking the battery terminals. They need to be clean, tight and no fraying wires. The battery needs it's hold down clamp and you need a vehicle profile...

Also check the ground coming off the negative terminal onto the chassis. Make sure it's clean and well secured.
