It's raining here today, so that means headlights on. I parked my car a little while ago and went inside for a couple of hours. When I went to leave, I started my car up, started to leave the parking lot, and turned my headlights on. When I turned them on, the entire electrical system died for just a moment and just about killed the motor. That's the first time this has ever happened, and I'm curious what happened. Any ideas?
