Another time I was just sitting in my driveway, car in D, but I wasn't moving and the engine shut off. The last time it happened I was reversing out of my driveway and as I began to turn the wheel it shut off. I did notice that my car idles high sometimes and sometimes its fine. I checked the ovp and both fuses are fine. I also checked the voltage regulator visually by taking it out of the alternator and it seems fine. Any suggestions?
