I have been reading every post I can about electrical issues for weeks now, but none of them describe my issue and I haven't been able to resolve on my own.
I have a 95 Pathy M/T w/200,000 miles on it. It is mechanically a tank but out of the blue I have had an electrical issue pop up.t started over a month ago when I was on a fire road, hit a washboard section, and it shuts off. And by shutoff I mean power down totally, the only thing that would work we're the headlights. After an hour of trying different things it fires back up and I drive it an hour home without a hitch.
Over the next couple of weeks the same issue. Runs great then dies out of the blue or just won't start. And when it dies ALL power is lost except to the headlights.
I have not yet replaced the fusible links but I had the battery checked. Load tested well but needed a charge. So I charged it at the shop, I went to put it back in tonight. When I turned the key everything came on like it should, went to start it and then everything died. Unhooked battery and hooked back up after a bit, now no gauges or power comes on but I hear a beeping (not as loud as one if you have lights on and door open) and when I turn the key to on I hear a very faint clicking but very fast clicking.
So, since this last thing happened I just don't know where to go...
I'm fairly stumped with this and would like to get my Pathy back up and running. If any of you have guidance or ideas, please let me know!
