MY CAR IS POSSESED
Here is the deal, It all started about 2 months ago. This only occurs when my lights are on.It started with my blinker display, the opposite dispay flashes along with my brights indicator when I signal for a turn. That has been going on for like 2 months. About a week ago, I started to get car interference in my sterio all the time. It was all managable till now. Now every other night, I drive home with my lights on and my lights start to flash, my sterio display goes out, I get a high pitch tone over my speakers, my dash display strobes and my tachometer are spedometer MAX out. The car stumbles for like 15 seconds and surges over and over and it all goes away, except for the turn signal. I checked for codes, and it says everything is cool...this is scary as hell. And I was wondering if anyone had some advise.

Drive down to the nearest Catholic church and get it exorcised...
It sounds to me like a short circuit of some sort... Have you done anything involving any wires recently? I'd check for bare wires touching other bare wires. I don't know how this would happen, but it sounds like the battery is getting a temporary gateway straight to your guage cluster which would drain power to everything else...
You need to fix it soon though, because you may end up doing damage to several electric components if it gets any worse.

I ran a couple wires through the fire wall, but that was like a year ago, I will check to see that the gromet is still in tac. I put in an aux, power terminal off the battery about 2 months ago. AHA...that might be it. Ill check and get back to ya guys.

Well....all my connections are good and in tac. But I removed them anyway cause Im taking my subs and amp to my new car. Along with my Wolf wistle horn and PIAA driving lights. My mechanic is fixing all of it. He said it was in part due to a loose + cable..but there is more to fix.
