driving in rain 2009 hhr all electric componete flashed several times after car died while moving. coasted to stop. tried to restart and it started right up. what could cause this.

 

Is your battery connection tight? Your engine bay fuse cover secured properly?

 

First off, welcome to the forum! This one has me scratching my head, but there is a place to start looking. Check the fuse block under the hood and make sure that everything is seated firmly in its socket, things working loose in the fuse block is a known issue. Also make sure the lid to the fuse block is securely fastened so no moisture works its way in. Now some questions. Did you run through a large puddle or some standing water right before the stall and electrical issue? Did the CEL come on either before the stall or did it come on after it restarted? Did you have any "eng power reduced" message on the information center, or any loss of performance? One thing you might do since they don't charge for it is to head to someplace like Autozone, Advance, Pep Boys or another repair shop to have the code/codes pulled since it probably set one.

 

The fuses are known to be loose from the factory on the HHRs. Press them all down.
