Scott1160 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Hi there I have got a problem with my 1.0l '04 Lupo with 67000 on the clock, I seem to be losing all power to the car rather randomly. I will get a check engine light and the EPC light on my dash momentarily then the engine stops the clocks and radio turn off. the car is without electrical power for around a minute then switches back on.There are no noises coming from the engine before this happens. I have had a unsuccessful search online and my only thought is the alternator. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete91 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 You can check the alternator by using a voltmeter on the battery terminals. Have a look and see what codes come up and report back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_taylor Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Any joy on this problem? I've just had the same thing, except it cut out the lights too. In the pitch black. On the M1. At 70mph... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
