Electrical problems

Asked by GuruY9HRH Feb 18, 2018 at 07:12 PM about the 2002 Audi A4 1.8T quattro AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2002 Audi A4 1.8 and it’s being weird, I’ve had
the battery replaced and ever since then sometimes when
I come to a stop while driving the battery light and the
EPC light turns on and the car just stops and turns off, but
the car will turn back on right away with no problems but
it gets dangerous when I stop and my car just stops. Does
anyone have any ideas on what I can do?

sounds like a bad ground or bad wire. Take the plugs off the battery and clean the terminals ((not the battery terminals the car terminals)) with a wire brush. then trace the wires down to the grounds and chec for signs of breaking or corrosion. it would probly be good to clean them any ways.
