  Subject: probably ground problem but need input anyways


  Last night I was driving a friend somewhere and my car lost power for =
a brief second. It was -15F outside and the temp needle was just about =
to leave the white box. The oil temp was about 1/3 of the way to the =
first listed number (I can't tell exactly where, it was dark). The car =
jolted and my stereo and headlights and everything blinked out for just =
a second. Things seemed ok after that, but my destination was only about =
another minute or so away. When I got back in the car a few hours later =
and fired it up, the battery light was on. I turned off my fogs and =
highbeams and after a few, the light went out. I turned back on the =
fogs, the light came back. The car felt fine, no loss in power, lights =
didn't seem dim. I haven't tried it in today's warmer temps and I =
haven't popped the hood yet. Did a ground come loose perhaps?
