Hello,
So my 97 ford explorer began stalling when driving the other day. when it stalls all electrical components die. I found that if I opened the hood and moved the positive battery cable around a little that it would eventually be able to start up.
I live in houston so its cold enough outside to cause this. I doubt it is the alternator because the car will start up just fine after moving the cable. It might be short but this only happens when in drive so I'm not sure. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what was the case/fix?
thanks
