The other day i bought a brand new battery cuse the old was ****tin it, anyway today on the way home my stereo turns off, light go dim, indicators dont work, now im thinking WTF has to be a bad earth or something
so trying to get home in one peice and as i slow the car starts jumpin and the warning engine light comes up, like its gonna stall but kicks back in, so im hoppin down my street up into my drive way and when i break fully the car stall :s whats my problem...bad earth my fuel was pretty low too, but thts got nothint o do with the electrical going off.

clean the battery terminals(on both battery and terminals on wires) and make sure theyre nice and tight

yer i will tommoz morning, but i still think it is something more then tht , does the earth wire get dodgy after a few years or what not, would it be a good idea to buy a new one, cause ive had bad earth problems before?

yeh, could be old and have a loose connection in the cable itself. let the car idle and give the earth wire a wiggle, see if it starts playing up
