Default my crv is having a problem

i havent been able to realy track it down yet but
i was driving the other day and i turned on my blinker to turn and the car died. i restarted it and then it imediatly died agian. so i waited a few seconds then tryed to restart agian and it started, but not far it died agian no blinker
and i had to wait a few minutes this time befor it would restart the car wasat normal temps and i figuredit had somthing to do with something over heating because it was fine after i let it cool for a few minutes, also the srs light came on after this second time not sure if it was related
but it was doing fine for the last few days then driving home from work today it happened agian just like befor but the drive home is only like no more than 5 miles and would have barely had time to warm up so im realy confused as to what this might be
any guess's as to what i might wanna check would be good
(i already checked the fuses)
thanks

Try looking at your coolant temp gauge when the car dies. What is showing you?.. If you have to let it cool first, I've seen a few CRV's come in overheating w/o the customer knowing. After it cools down, it starts up fine.

Mentioning the vintage of your CRV would help. If it's older, maybe a battery problem, maybe loose cable(s), ignition switch, etc.
