MadPSI Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Car: '92 Olds CSS 3100 (stock) I installed a stereo in this car a short time ago and it's been acting up. Turning the stereo up will kill the car, no matter what speed/RPM/anything I'm at. The car is then a sitting duck, it will never start again for about 30 minutes (gets fuel, but no spark). After I let it sit for some time it fires up and goes on it's merry way until I turn on the stereo again. I've added a 4 AWG ground strap to ground motor to chassis, plus I'm in the prosess of getting a better battery to help combat this problem. My question is: Does the ECM have a low-voltage shutoff/reset switch to protect itself? If so, what have people done to combat this problem? Or is there possibly another problem that is triggered from the stereo. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
