Fiesta Cut-Out - wjh
Driving home last night (2004 54 Fiesta 1.25) in built up area doing around 40mph when the engine suddenly cut out and the battery warning light illuminated. Lost power steering assistance and pulled it into the side where the engine started first time as usual it has been completely fine since. Why did that happen?

Dodgy battery connection, earth connection?
As (I presume) it's still under warranty, it could be worthwhile getting its memory read.
