Every now and then my evo decides to just lose power. I have changed the ignition switch out and that seemed to help a bit, but the other day i was in a drive through car wash and my evo just died and wouldn't start so i waited till the car wash ended got out and pushed my car out of the wash bay and when i got back in the car had power going to it. If you have any ideas please let me know because its becoming a hassle / embarassing problem.

 

is your battery good? check the terminals yet? Loose? Any corrosion?....check for a bad or corroded ground?...

 

no man the battery is good and so are the terminals its weird i will put in the key and the ding will go off for the door being open but when i close the door and turn it to acc or to on the gauges dont work or anything and it wont start.

 

check for something electrical that is exposed. And where the car gets wet in the engine bay after a car wash.

 

It was dying and cutting out before i washed it though. It has done this several times.

 

my best bet is the starter solenoid bolt is loose, my wifes elantra did the same thing, confused the crap out of me till I found that.

 

check your main power relay
