Great to hear that things are much better!  I have had many electrical 
problems on cars over the years, a few just went away without me doing
anything.  Many years ago I shade treed as a mechanic, working mostly
on electrical, foreign, suspension and brakes.  A fellow called me one
day saying that the generator light was on on his car.  I was busy and
told him to charge it every day and bring it to me in about a week.  A
week passed and sure enough, he shows up.  When he got out of the car
he had a big grin on his face.  He then informs me that the generator 
light had been on for the past week, but when he turned onto my street,
it went off.  I checked things out and everything was fine.  As soon as he 
rounded the corner leaving my street the light came back on!  He brought
it back to me and the light went back off!  He left the car with me so I 
could be driving it when the light came back on.  2 weeks later I returned
the car to him - the light never came back on.  I ran into him several
years later, he still had the car and the light never came on again!
Isn't electrics wonderful!

Peace,
Pat
