1995 intermittent popping through speakers
1995 Chevy truck, 350tbi 73k orig. miles. This just started a week ago. Sometimes while driving there will be a popping sound that comes through speakers when the brake is applied, turn signal, etc. Lights on the dash will flash and the idle will drop. I know it is electrical but not sure where to start. Sometimes just sitting at a traffic light it will pop and almost die. Thanks for the input.

Agreed, truck does have trailer brake and mount for snowplow. The snowplow wiring is disconnected.

Re: 1995 intermittent popping through speakers
I'd look around for a bad ground as well. There should be a big cable from the battery to the intake manifold, a smaller one to the fender, and one on the back of the passeger side head to the firewall. There are also ground points on the inside of the firewall.

Re: 1995 intermittent popping through speakers
Maybe when the snowplow was disconnected it effected the ground connection.

Re: 1995 intermittent popping through speakers
The grounds and battery cables all appear to be in good condition. While driving last night with the cruise on, went to signal a lane change and it popped and kicked out the cruise and dash warning lights flashed. The battery has a double connection on the positive terminal, one cable to the starter another goes to the fuse/power box on the driver side engine compartment. This looks to a factory cable, does this sound correct?
