Loses electrical power when driving. Engine shut off, dash lights go out, turn signals stop functioning, and radio shuts off and looses presets. Sometimes, shifting to neutral allows engine to restart. Sometimes must come to a complete stop. Noticed once activating turn signal seemed to initiate problem. On other time, stepping on brake pedal seemed to initiate problem. Don't know if these are symptoms or coincidence. Any suggestions? Thanks.
