[Chrysler300] Sudden Electrical Losses

["Rich Barber" <c300@xxxxxxx>]

We are remiss in not cautioning the technician to remove the ground cable
first and be sure to wear safety goggles and gloves if you get to wire
brushing connections.  Wire brushes tend to spit out wire fragments and
corrosion and metal particles.  A careful soda solution wipedown of the
underhood area and battery may also be in order after cleanup.  Those little
particles of lead and copper sulfate still have acid power and will do a job
on eyes, skin, paint and exposed metal.

C-300'ly,
Rich Barber

  Per Rich Barber, suggest attack what is probably the most common reason
for system failure as you describe; remove battery terminal for terminal
connectd to the chassis. Then remove other cable end. Soak connections if
necessary in baking soda/water mixture, dry and polish inside terminal.
Sometimes better to remove battery if can be done safely and clean battery
tray and battery case and clean and polish battery posts. When all this is
accomplished, put everything back trhe way it was and the mystery problem
normally disappears.
