Re: stalls when brake/stop/turn,unless i throw it into neutral

so since i unplug the sensor, and it almost seemed to work better for a few miles, Not plugged in, then started stalling again... that means if it runs better unplugged or about the same when plugged in, i have a bad sensor? I dont want to take it to the dealer, but i dont want to but a sensor and ...

Re: stalls when brake/stop/turn,unless i throw it into neutral

...so disconnect and reconnect the sensor, then try to see if the same problem exist?...

..or disconnect and try running without the sensor connected?...

dosent make sense or i dont get it, if it was disconnected while trying to drive, wouldn't it act the same as if it were connected being bad

stalls when brake/stop/turn,unless i throw it into neutral

When i am slowing down to make a turn, the car dies and i lose stearing....my battery light comes on as well. If ...
