I was drivng my car and in a second all the dashboard lights flashed and shut down. The gas even failed to work causing the car to stop and it was also difficult to turn off the road because my steering wheel was no turning. This is the first time its happened like this. In the past the dash lights will flash make a sound then be fine.

    Really need to get the car scanned to see what failed. There are several electronic systems that can cause your problem.

    It should cost less than $100 for this, and yes the electrical system has a problem, but that involves about 6-7 computers and lots of wiring etc. need to narrow it down a little bit.
