Radio shuts off while driving and all lights start flashing and the truck goes into neutral

Asked by Coltonm Jan 30, 2018 at 11:12 PM about the 2009 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE 4WD

Question type: General

It started about a week ago when I tried to remote start my truck with my
viper security fab and it set my car alarm off and would not start I googled
the issue and people online said the factory alarm was overriding the Viper
system so I just start unlocking my truck and remote starting it unlocked.
Also my radio has been periodically shutting off and restarting well I have
been driving. Then today my radio shut off and started flickering on and off,
this followed by my headlights and taillights also flashing while I was driving
and then my key fab beeping at me and my truck essentially shifting into
neutral. My engine was still reving and I was still in drive but I had no power
and couldn't move. So I pulled over and restarted the truck and it worked for
about five minutes and then did the same thing again. Does anyone have
any idea what is wrong with him before I start tearing things apart and
spending a lot of money? Thanks in advance

@oldstorqnpower Well if anything that would be good news. I am just hoping it's not some expensive electrical problem.

Just check with Under hood fuse block .This might be causing the concern.
