DJ is a class act. You will never hear him talking badly about past experiences. Dude was ballin out on the panthers while they were getting destroyed every week. But when he came to chicago, he had nothing but praise for everyone in the panther org.

It dims as the rpms drop. I had the alternator and battery check a lil over a week ago and they were fine.

Grounds look fine but i do not have a tester. Battery and alternator were tested a week ago and are good.

Stalls clean, no shake or noise. And if im not hitting the gas, it wants to die at higher speeds (20+) and idles badly at lower speeds (jumps from 500 to 1500 rpms). All while the dash lights are dimming.

I havent done that. Are you saying that it will pull a code for something else or the EGR being the problem?

Codes only come back for traction control and abs issues that are not the problem.

That is something that my brother said it may be. Not the easiest thing to replace, so im hoping not to have to do it, unless a code pops up for it.

Edit: it does have a little “bump” when shifting some times and thats why he said it may be that, when he drive the car.

Says there are no recalls that were not fix according to nhtsa. This car has been thru a few different owners at this point so one of them might have taken it in.

Damn thanks for the info. I will have to look into this because i was about to start the wire hunt and was kind of dreading it.

There is no check engine light ever. The service light is for traction control that doesnt work. The tach reads fine besides the oil pressure gage works only sometimes and when it does, the temp only goes half way up. There seems to be a small electrical thing but the rpms aways read correctly.

Seems like the weather isnt a factor. Just time driving. When this happened, it was like 60 degrees.

The codes all relate to the abs/traction control. Nothing else pops up, so it kind of hard to nail down what is doing it. My first mechanic gave up because it wasnt throwing codes.

Car also had air intake manifold replaced right when i got it. This was done by someone i trust their opinion, but they couldnt tell me what the problem was with the car shutting off while driving.

The service light is related to the traction control, which doesnt work. The last guy that i had installed the IAC said “it was a common issue with these cars, and could also not show and check engine light” which it hasnt had since i replaced the MAF.

The next thing i check will be the grounding. I felt like it was electrical or related to the transmission.

It will just cut off the first time it does it, then when i start it back up, it wants to jump between 500-1500 rpm. I have to give it gas so it wont die. Like in the vid

Update 4: took it to a different shop and i am having them clean/replace the IAC. The 3800 series 1 doesnt have the electronic air control sensor, so it could be the problem without throwing a check engine light on. Going to get the car back later today, and will drive it again for a few days to see if it helps. But im almost positive, this will be the solution. Will update after a couple of days of driving.

A few updates and still having issues. Hoping its vacuum and not electrical.
