yeah.

update. the car shuts off and on for a split second. gages, gage lights, and radio turn off, basically whole car shuts off for a split second. then the engine light stays lit.
it is not consistent though. it doesnt happen all the time. if it doesnt happen often the engine light eventually shuts off.

i dont want to take it to the dealership because if its running correctly and that doesnt happen while they drive it, they will say they dont know whats wrong.
i have a code reader now so im waiting for it to happen again. but i think the code reader might give me the wrong code.

anyone have an idea whats going on?
