    Odd thing occured today

    Started the car up this morning and drove off.

    Radio kept turning itself off and on. Pulled up and opened a door. Interior light flickering.

    Stopped the engine and restarted and seems ok.

    Plugged the OBD tool in, no fault codes showing.

    Restart and the OBD tool show as 10.6 volts for 20 seconds perhaps. Then built up quickly to 13.8 volts.

    Drove around for a further 40 minutes and no recurrence.

    Anyone else had something similar happen?

    Yes this happened to me about 2 years ago with the radio coming on and off.
    I did video it but have deleted it from my phone.I may have it on the laptop and if so I will post it up if I find it.

    Its never done it since.From memory it did it a few times over a week or so at the time.

    Not sure if it threw codes as I don't have a reader.

      I can't say I've had this happen, but I'd be suspecting a loose connection somewhere.

      Start with removing, cleaning and tightening the terminals on your starter battery, then see what happens.

        Negative terminal was minimally loose.
