Got gas. wouldn't start. Got a jump start and all this started. All good before that. All warning lights flashing intermittently: ABS, OD/Off, engine skipping, A/C on then off, lights strobing, needless jumping, transmission jumping.
Quiets down some when turn lights off.
Gets worse when touch brakes.
Jumpers hooked correctly. Jumped right off. Got about 100 yards and all this started. Haven't done anything except check fluids and stuff for a while. Last time did anything was replace fog bulbs two months ago. Had to replace starter (Sears in Savannah did it) in Dec. After-market brand so doesn't engage as effectively but still works. Think I'll go home and disconnect battery for 10-min to reboot ECM? Then start w/ the code reading. Just thought I'd go ahead and check w/ Y'all before I got started as Y'all have been Johnny-on-the-spot last couple of times and might have heard/seen/handled something similar.
