I just got back with my bird on a strecher she died on me in rush hour traffic on the way home from class today. A couple of days ago i noticed my gauge lights and dash would be really dim when i first started my car untill i revved the engine, then it would be normal. So i associated this with a diying battery so i went out and bought a new Duralast battery w/ 1000 CCA. the problem seemed better untill today when i was comming home from class... First i noticed my CD player acting strangeit began to shut off then immediatly turn back on then off....then on. untill i shut it off. then my firm ride light started flickering about 3 min. later. then my VMM totally went out for a sec then back on. Soon after i shut off all power consuming devices including headlights. i stopped at a red light and when i began to let out the clutch i felt like i had no power at all, sort of like my clutch didint engage but then it did and all was fine for about 5 minutes untill i was about a mile away from my house and stuck in stopped traffic, that's when all of my gauges started flickering on and off including my radio, this is about the time when I decide to creep onto the median as i let out the clutch i turned on my hazzard lights and she died....... When I tried to restart her nothing worked at all.... so i walked home and called AAA to get the dead chicken. If anyone has any idea what may be my cars problem I would really apreciate your input, as I need to get my car running ASAP as i have work and finals at school to get to this week! Any input would be helpful. I am charging the battery now with hopes of getting it running soon so i can try to pinpoint the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help,
