I have been having some wierd problems lately.

Thursday - My headlights do not automatically turn on, even though it was night out.

Friday - Lights work again but now my ABS and parking brake light comes on and my ICCU displays a bunch of jibberish and won't work.

Sunday - Everything works again fine

Monday - Car won't start. I put the key in and the power comes on normally. I go to start the car and the power just dies. The car didn't even turn over. No power at all for a few minutes, then it comes back on and a I try again. Same thing. It was cold so I figured I would wait till the next day

Tuesday - Car starts fine

Wed - Same thing with the car dying. Power just cuts off. I jiggle the wires going to the fuse box and the power comes back on. I go to start it and power dies. This happens 3 or 4 times. We tried jumping hte battery but that wasn't even the problem, car still wouldn't start. I jiggled the wires into the fuse box again and the car did start. I shut it off and started it up a few times and it was fine but my DIC was displaying wierd numbers

I will see tomorrow if it starts up again but any suggestions? Not only on why the car won't start, but the wierd electrical problems. It is not battery related.

Thanks
Mike
