Morning gentlemanâ€¦

Got a new one for you to ponder with me. As I do almost weekly when the weather is nice as it was this weekend I take the beast out for a cruise. So last night I am pulling into a driveway with my right turn signal on and the dash starts freaking out, head lights start flashing on and off, and it just diesâ€¦

I was on the phone at the time and thought for a brief moment I stalled it out from choosing the wrong gear but then reality hit me. I turned the key over and nothingâ€¦ everything else was functioning as normal. Gauges, lights, flashers, signals, instruments, radio, ect. All working normal, it just wouldnâ€™t even crank. I popped open the hood to inspect the new battery and no loose cables, all was fine. Tried the key again, still nada. I sat there pissed off for 5-10 mins and was just about to call a tow truck and tried it one more time. Spun right up like nothing happened at all. Drove it around the block, no problem. Parked it for an hour then drove 30 miles home. No problem.

What just happened???
