Car wont start followup 900 1994

Hey fellas,

I hope everyone is having a good morning. My 940t is as earlier reported running now and not having any starting problems. I do have another mostly likely related issue.

Comming home last night from work, I was pulling out of a streat parking space an upon start up and turning the steering wheel my car stalled and shut down. It restarted immediatly and drove fine until I was cruising on the highway. Highway traffic was moving at around 45-50 (late rush hour) then suddenly came to a complete stop. Upon slowing down to stop the car stalled and shut off, again immediatly restarted in nuetral and drove fine the rest of the way home.

I've changed the fuel pump relay, and rpm sensor, I'm still waiting for my radio suppression relay to arrive. What do you guys think is the problem?

Thanks again
Michael

Maybe the AMM connector contacts? I had an LH 2.2 that would die at times, and seemed to revive when I replugged the connector (we're grasping at straws here, I know).

Seems related to the electrical portion of the ignition switch. These can and do go bad, especially if you carry a heavy load of keys etc on your key chain. Believe the FAQ has more info.
