Hit a big bump and it seemed to turn all my dash lights on power steering went off, along with any type of gas to the car, music was still bumpin. Rolled to a stop turned it off started it, everything back to normal. Any reason why this happened is this a safety feature or has this happened to others b4? thanks for any adivce I have a 95 eclipse gst :liebe011:

up proly have a bad ground. You say erything went off? if so maybe in your wiring harnes the circuits for that are pre-grounding from the bump hitting something...it could also be something as siple as connections, if u got a volt meter to a wiggle test n check for volt drops if not just visualy look at points of conection but a meter would be better bcuz u would know if its an internal problem in a wire...
