It all started one Saturday night when I was pulling into the gas station. All of a sudden my headlights, stereo, AC, and dash went out and my needles on my dash shot down, but my engine was still running. 3 seconds later, everything turned back on and it was fine. Just the other morning, 2 weeks after my incident, it did it again while I was on my way to work. Except this time within about 2 minutes all electrical shut off about 20-30 times. 3 seconds off, 10-20 seconds back on, off again for another 3 seconds. And after those 2 minutes of electrical hell, it was fine. Drove to work and drove 16 miles back home, without a problem. I took it to AutoZone and they said I have a defective wire and I need to take it to the dealership. GREAT! Has anyone else come across this problem?

one day while driving, i hear clicking sound and all the electronic components reset...
radio goes off, clock resets, tachometer/speedometer go down to 0 and back...
just for 2 secs...and back to normal...then repeats every 5 mins until i stop driving the car for that day...the next day nothings wrong again...
the problem also starts occurring sometimes when i try to turn on my headlights...
this repeats every other week or so...
took it to the mechanic and he says there's nothing wrong with it and thinks i am paranoid...
