[QUOTE="tymoto21, post: 8478941, member: 589669"] If it was cold that could be normal My gm alt charges at 15.2/3 then when it warms up it drops to 14.7/8 check the voltage after it warms up a bit Usually electronics don't act up until the alt is charging around 16v. And the alt wouldn't have **** the car off it would be something that was not working if the voltage was too high Drive it around and try to make it happen again My wife's car randomly shut off and it was a bad ignition control module (3 mechanics couldn't find it) but my friend was is a mechanic drove it for a week then it finally messed up for him [/QUOTE]
