So basically, car was running normal (BPU 89' Turbo) I had been driving for about 10 minutes, the car was warm. I'm in 3rd, going about 40 MPH, when out of nowhere, the car loses all power. My tach and speedo drop to zero. All my electric Defi gauges freeze in place (EGT, Boost, FP, Oil pressure, all in good ranges), the car slowly dies as I turn off on a side street.
I popped the hood. Checked my fuses, couldn't find one that was blown. Checked battery connections, tight, look good. Batt voltage showed 12.5 V on the voltmeter, good.
No response whatsover ever when I turn the key, lights aren't working, ZERO POWER.
So where does this leave me? I towed the car home.
Did my ECU short out? Fusible link? Bad ground? Loose wire/bad connection somewhere else? Where is the best place to start tracking this down?
Thanks in advance,
