The electrical system on my 91 toyota tercel seems to have a defect. Occasionally, when i turn on my turn signal, or my heater fan, the headlights and taillights, as well as the radio will turn off for about half a second, and the car will stutter a bit. So far, the lights and everything have come back on with no problem, but i'm concerned about the possibility of them staying off at some point and leaving me unable to see or be seen. It did it tonight after i heard a loud clicking and turned off my heater to see if it was coming from there, and then turned the heater back on. *nm
