probably ground problem but need input anyways
check your voltage regulator on your alternator, mine did something like
that I ended up finding one of th brushes "snaped" and was a lot shorter
than the other one, 2 mins to check 1 phillips #2 required.

=>Last night I was driving a friend somewhere and my car lost power
=>for a brief second. It was -15F outside and the temp needle was
=>just about to leave the white box. The oil temp was about 1/3 of
=>the way to the first listed number (I can't tell exactly where,
=>it was dark). The car jolted and my stereo and headlights and
=>everything blinked out for just a second. Things seemed ok after
=>that, but my destination was only about another minute or so
=>away. When I got back in the car a few hours later and fired it
=>up, the battery light was on. I turned off my fogs and highbeams
=>and after a few, the light went out. I turned back on the fogs,
=>the light came back. The car felt fine, no loss in power, lights
=>didn't seem dim. I haven't tried it in today's warmer temps and I
=>haven't popped the hood yet. Did a ground come loose perhaps?
