Started up just fine, left the drive with heat on high, seat / steering wheel heaters on. Raining, 46 Degrees.
Got on the highway started flashing error codes (4x4, trailer tow issue, check brakes, service engine)
After a few moments all the lights shut off. Its pitch black going 70 but I have other cars for reference. Stayed running, just lost all lights. Came back on in under a minute. All the chimes and noises coming through the speakers never stopped.
Then I had a relay or a solenoid tripping like crazy coming from the rear of the vehicle and for the rest of the drive it let me know when it was about to go black again which it did twice more. I was checking guages (when I had them) and the voltage was the only one jumping like crazy.
Fortunately I have a service scheduled tomorrow and Ill let them figure out the rats nest.
Anyone else run into this? Im assuming its just alternator related.
