Answer
Hi ruben.... check to see if your alt is putting up enough power...should be 13.9 volts or better at the battery. if not check the connections for corrosion. check battery connections to be sure they are tight, also check connections at the starter and the fuse/relay box. it sounds like you have an intermittent connection problem...hope this helps... merry christmas
