Sounds like loose wiring to me. Check all your connections.

Sounds like a ground problem to me. I dont know how old your ground cable is, but since they are pretty cheap, that would be the first thing I would replace.

I hope that helps. Electrical problems are the worst

Remember when I changed your clutch I said I was going to make a post about your wiring? If I can find the picture of the possible offending wiring I'll post it. It is amazing the car has ever started.

There is more wrong but I did not take pictures. Most of it is from a PO, the stock wiring is good.

There is no pictures of the clutch job it was routine.
Being young, you a a slightly warped perspective of great. It was useable/fair/ok until it was not. Your talking to someone who knows your Baja. Smile

Can anyone point out to Dan what is wrong with this picture. It would be nice if it was indicated with a big red arrow.
