uploadfromtaptalk1400017534406.jpg so on my way home my ac quite working, my ABS and brake lights came on, stereo kept cutting out and my voltage meter went to approximately 11 volts. I turned everything off, disconnected the sub and amp and all sorts of lights are on and off. This is what I got when I got back from having the charging system checked. The system checked showed no issues with the system so...??? HELP PLEASE!!!

Ignition switch is my first guess as that's the most common culprit for goofball electrical problems.

Check your battery terminal bolts, make sure they are good and tight. If you can rotate either one around the axis of the terminal, that's likely the problem. Similar issue happened to me, and a few others, which was solved by a few turns on the terminal to tighten it.

Edit: Totally forgot about the ignition switch. Good call Jared

I found and resolved the issue. A loose body ground on the side wall by the battery. I tightened it up and everything is working excellent now. I appreciate all y'all's time and effort with my situation. KCCO!!!
