Alright guys. I've been experiencing the problem again. First time (since last documented in this thread) was a few weeks ago. I cleaned the ground to the frame again and the problem went away. Then yesterday on my way to work, my headlights flickered whenever I pressed on the brake. Expressway driving was fine aside from that, but when I arrived at my parking spot (slow moving and turning) the power steering went crazy and the steering wheel jarred like it's done before. This always happens when I'm going slow and turning the wheel. Never when I'm moving at a decent speed and turning the wheel such as in an intersection. Alternator not putting enough out because the rpm's are low?
Again today while I was driving, the info screen said my power steering assist was reduced and to drive with caution. I always have my phone plugged into the 110v outlet under the dash. I noticed my voltage meter was quite a bit below 14. Maybe 11. I never noticed that before. It also seems that this always happens when I have the AC on high. I thought perhaps the condensate is shorting something out.
I'll update the thread if I figure anything out. I'm wondering if a high output alternator and 2nd battery would eliminate this problem.
