85 Trans Am Dies Sign In

I have a 85 Pontiac Trans Am with a 5.0 in it. When I turn on lights it runs fine, but as soon as I press down the brake or roll down my windows(electric) it dies. So far I have checked fuses and they are all good.

Sounds like something is robbing power from the ignition system or fuel pump. Check for any aftermarket accessories wired in where they shouldn't be.

Thanks for your help. I checked everything and couldn't find a problem. It runs fine now, I guess it fixed itself.Unsure

I wouldn't bet on that but you can't diagnose it until it fails again.
