Hi Guys i seem to have a gremlin in the wiring of my Patrol, i randomly lose all electrics while driving, there is an audible click as i lose power, the dash lights come on like i have turned the ignition off! also it wipes the pre sets on my radio, almost as if the battery has been disconnected. It only last a few seconds then it fires up and it may be fine for an hour or two. Also i occurs sometimes when i use the indicators and head lights. The Alternator has only been replaced 2 months ago and is charging at 14.4vts. Its a 2000 3.0 ST... any ideas as what may be causing this?...cheers Paul

Hi mate no harm done but can you pop over to
the intros ,just something the forum asks of us all,
polite and all.
As for your problem try swapping your ECM relay with the air-con to test
{under the dash and either blue or brown in appearance}
Dis-connect the battery for 30 mins or so
