    Default Lost power at 110 kls PH (now dead)

    Hi guys looking for some help here.I’m not very well and having problems staying at the key board.

    I did see a self diagnostics procedure in finding what the problem was with my old VS but now have a dead VX.
    The car was cruising at 110kls per hour and lost power and could not be restarted.
    Now is there a diagnostics procedure for the VX where a wire shorts out a plug and you get some numbers seen on the dash.

    Any help would be appreciated as I had to leave the car 300 kls from home at a friends place and he will have a go at fixing it for me.

    If it is a V6 then the above procedure will work, but if it is a V8 then you will need a Tech 2 to read the codes.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    Probably same thing as mine. Whats your battery voltage. Voltage regulator on the alternator could be dead
