Out of curiosity, why is it that you think adding transmission fluid would have anything to do with electrical loss in your car?

I would say have your battery and alternator tested to see if they're functioning correctly.

Transmission fluid? I don't understand...

hi all,

pwr light flashing now cured. was not electrical!!!!!
it was low auto trans fluid low causing the torque convertor to pulse apparently so the chevrolet garage told me when picked up from them tonight.

strange though as no fluid leaks found so at a loss as to why the fluid whent so low(took 3 ltrs of fluid to top up?)

thanks for the suggestions.
