Check the fuse box under the hood make sure it's secure, if it isn't then you hot, positive,wire could be arking off the body. That would cause issues cranking or cutting off while driving. If thats not the case check your relay. Last it could be lose wiring at pcm or body ground. You can always pull the alteranter off and have it tested
