    Just got my speed where I want it and I was driving it going about 30 started to roll into a pull and then my engine just shut off like a blown fuse. Lights stayed on when I try to start it I get a single click from the fuse box but nothing else no crank nothing. All fuses are good battery is good and connection is there. Grounds that I can see are all good. My ap will not connect to the ecu. Anyone ever had anything like this happen. Leaning towards bad ecu or a ground somewhere? Sorry if I posted in the wrong spot.

    Ok well my old speeds engine popped and it still would connect to the ecu. And if it was popped wouldn’t the starter at least be trying to turn. Also when it happened it made no weird noises it just acted like I turned the key off. Anyone have any idea what it could be other than The engine it seems electrical to me

    Found the issue when I installed the down pipe I managed to pinch I wire on the alternator wiring harness. Took out that smashed wire replaced it and it good to go
