My electrical supply suddenly tripped

**nolicorpuz** · October 2nd, 2012 07:26 PM

I am a driving a revo srj 2.o AT. Last week, tue to be exact, bigla na lang nagtripped and nawala lahat ng lights ko including that of the car stereo, pero bumalik naman after mga 2 seconds. After two days, nangyari uli yon for 2 seconds uli. Last friday, habang nakastop sa intersection, nangyari uli but this time, ung engine ay nag-stall. Nagstart naman uli yung engine when I started, and when I arrived at sm para magpark, nagbiblink yung head lights ko at yung lights ko sa dashboard. What's probably wrong with this? Me kinalaman ba ang mga relays ko? Pag nag-park light ako, dumidilim yung interior light ko, I believe hindi dapat mabawasan ang power ng set of lights pag mag-ooperate ng iba pang sets. Has anyone experience this before? Paki-share naman please.

Try to disconnect the alternator and check if the revo will operate normally (start engine, lights, etc). If it does, the alternator needs repair/replace.

baka may loose connection lang. clean battery terminals and make sure the clamps are tightly secured.

if symptoms persist, bring it to a trusted electrical shop. Mahirap kasi mag tinker sa electricals baka magka-sunog (experienced this before with my sentra. tried tinkering with the electricals and I accidentally shorted someting.)

Same thing with my Corona 1997 Excior bigalang namamatay pag na menor black out lahat after few seconds meron ng power and re start it, ok na ulit.

i had similar experience years ago in my sentra... midnight.. then, everything died, except for the engine. and my fear at that time was, as the road was completely dark, i might run myself off the road, or somebody might come along and bump into me. fortunately, everything came back up after about 10 seconds.
it happened to me about 3 times with this car since 1997, and i still haven't come up with an explanation.
