Default anyone have this type of problem before? >
i was driving on the highway home last night, when i see me headlights flash, i look down. all electrical systems go out. the headlights flashed, radio went off, all gauges went into the off position. it was only for about 2 seconds.. just a quick off/on. happened twice in the past 2 weeks.

any ideas?

TIA

Battery or cluster. First one is cheap ... 2nd could be free depending upon your in-service date.

the cluster controls all the electrical systems in the car though?
