Didn't want to start.
Okay, so I'm driving around, and I notice that when I hit my brakes, my cluster, radio and clock would lose power for a second, but would come back, now this only happened like 3 times in my ~15 minute ride, so I pulled over, parked the car and checked everything, looked all good, nothing out of the ordinary looking, then a few minutes later go to start the car, and all the lights on the cluster come on, radio comes on, clock comes on, and my gauges light up, but when I go to turn the key to turn it on, I can hear it try to start, and it try's to crank it but it won't start and after it turns it over a few times, the noise it makes will kind of die off then if i try again a few seconds later it won't even do that crank thing. But I waited for over an hour for someone to come help me out, and I tried to start it to show them what happened, and when I did, it did crank, and it started but it had a hard time doing so.
Anyone have any idea what's going on?
Thanks in advance

Re: Didn't want to start.
Definetly Check your battery system, as in test the battery and alternator and check your connections.
i had a similar problem where with my 2 15" subs running with headlights and stuff like that everytime i had hit the brake everything shut off, then came back. it was a loose battey connection ( negative on the strut tower)

Re: Didn't want to start.
Alright, just checked my battery connections, and my ground wire on my battery was slightly loose, so I tightened that up, and started her up again, and she did start, but again there was a little hesitation, I'm still concerned that there it isn't something else wrong.
Thanks for the help
