Well I found my cutout/ stall problem

I have a short in one or more of my systems. When I drive my ex sometimes my car will stall it does it at any speed or rpm. I found that If I hit a hard bump when driving on the road it will cough and threaten to stall. My 4-lo light stays on when the engine is on but goes off occasionally, or filckers then goes out.
The light will be bright when 4 lo is engagued. Its just kinda on but not bright when disengaged. Also I replaced my headlight switch and noticed that the harness for the switch is charred around one of the connection points. Could that be the problem or is there someway I can find out.
Should I rewire my whole car?
Should I sell it and Buy a full size Bronco?
Or should I take it to the dreaded dealer and get screwed again ( they said the fixed it the first time about 3 months ago) Liars!!!!!
Gimme so feed back.

Ok will do.
Also I pulled codes today. Found a 66 code.
The 66 is what I was worryed about having to do with the MAS. I cleaned the sensor with spray
and lost daylight so will test it again tomarrow and see if the code is gone. MaybeI can use this as agood excuse to buy a gratinelli.
