    sounds like a grounding situation if i'm thinking correctly...hitting the brakes has the brake lights come on so there might be a short in the wiring or just have a bad groudn somewhere...

    im 90% sure its wiring tho

    Alternator issues? Perhaps when your using your brake the power for the lights is causing an electrical short of some kind and messing with a faulty alternator or connection thus causing it to power off and then back on again

    looks like the car has over weight limit on it, sounds like you need to get back on that diet.

    it could be your battery to, because the alternator, battory and starter is the main souce for ur electricity. one time i was riding in my brother n law GSR, and all of the electricity jus died and the car shut off. but we was going 50 i dink. so it could b that to, but like also, it mayb be ur alternator. iono. but good luck though.
